This article analyzes comic strips from the series “Os empreendedores”, written by Toni D’ Agostinho. The aim is to analyze how the discourses of these strips make strategies of resistance to neoliberal rationality work, specifically the effects of truth produced about entrepreneurship and the entrepreneurial subject. The theoretical framework is based mainly on Foucauldian Discursive Studies. Seven strips published on the Instagram profile of the artist mentioned above were studied. The analysis makes it possible to affirm that entrepreneurship is re-signified, with a view to denouncing the precarious working conditions of today and, in this way, we see the performance of practices of resistance to neoliberalism.
