Byung-Chul Han, one of the most influential philosophers and theorists of recent times, discusses the relationship between culture and power and revises the concept of disciplinary society. Grounding this revision on the concepts of performance and transparency in particular, Han has followed an approach close to that of Foucault. According to Foucault, the powers construct the subject through the concepts he calls dispositive, and this construction is inured to the subject through experiences. While dispositives gain importance as a recipe for making subjectivity meaningful in late capitalist societies, they are utilized by different theorists in their social readings as guiding tools. Han chooses the concept of surveillance as a dispositive in his works, Abstract Byung-Chul Han, a thinker who deals with today’s cultural changes, just as Foucault dealt with cultural climate changes, interprets the society in his various texts through the surveillance dispositive in particular. According to Foucault, the concept of dispositive marks strategies on the way to the subject, which is built through subjective experiences. Dispositive is everything that captures, determines, models, and controls a living being, in other words, everything that constructs the living being in the name of the power. According to Han, the task of the surveillance dispositive (function of building the culture) is still valid. The body-controlling, disciplinary technologies developed in the 20th century to ensure the security of society have now turned into transparentizing technologies that allow a society to feel free. Han, who defines the 21st-century society as a performance or fatigue society, interprets the new social dynamics with his concepts. Han points out a new cultural process in particular that has emerged around developing technologies. field the Han’s flow is in a state power to some of psychoanalysis while he prefers the concepts of performance and transparency as a power technique. The study aims to discuss Han's revision of the concept of disciplinary society within the context of the cultural acclimatization applied by powers on the subject, using the interpretivist technique from qualitative research methods. According to political psychology, which has sprung from the intersection of politics and psychology, culture is functionalized by powers to exert an acclimatization effect on society. Ideologies pass to the subjects through the acclimatization that occurs at the moments of encounter and spread through the interaction. In the context of this study, the timeline on social media, which implicates surveillance flow, is considered a suitable place for cultural acclimatization to be carried out by spreading ideologies. According to the data obtained in the study, in today's post-modern society, the powers have primarily switched to a performance-based paradigm from a discipline-based one. Powers build a palliative society that has repressed its sufferings,

Biopower has been discussed by various scholars. Biopower focuses on life and produces it. Fictional universes can be illuminating in understanding the framework of biopower. Speculations on the future and disaster scenarios have been recurrent in many books and films up to the present and some of these have the potential to become a reality. Similarly, digital games can offer similar experiences. Digital games are influential on people and provide visions of the future. There are various types of digital games, but only survival games and government simulation games offer certain projections regarding real life and form the foresight which helps the individual to make social and individual inferences on alternative situations. The aim of the study, accordingly, is to analyse survival games in terms of biopolitics by specifically focusing on Frostpunk. The findings of the study suggest that the laws of Frostpunk can be discussed in terms of biopower. It is, therefore, possible to identify the traces of biopower in the laws of Frostpunk. Frostpunk, thus, contributes to the understanding of the framework of the concept of biopower. The findings of the study indicate that digital games can be used as subjects of scientific inquiry in terms of shedding light on certain phenomena and concepts, and also render them more understandable.
