The concept of dispositif, proposed by Michel Foucault in the mid-1970s but not fully developed, has become one of political philosophy's critical discussion and application topics in recent years. Therefore, the dispositif, of which content and boundaries are not fully drawn, both constitutes the subject of distinct interpretations and bears the potential to develop into a vital analysis tool. This study discusses the concept of dispositif through the perspectives of various thinkers and presents an analytical framework. Subsequently, it proposes indebtedness as a dispositif of the neo-liberal capitalist order. To demonstrate the role and function of the dispositif of indebtedness, the study regards and analyses Fight Club, Mr. Robot, and Squid Game, which all have attracted considerable attention recently, as examples of the dystopian genre. The study argues that all three works subject to analysis provide essential perspectives on the political, cultural, and economic relations created by the neoliberal capitalist order that has developed since the 1990s and provide essential tools for problematization. Despite taking place at different times, these three productions present an anti-capitalist critique and demonstrate how individuals are subjectified through hegemonic culture and norms in the neo-liberal order. In this regard, the study contributes to the literature on political philosophy as well as to Foucauldian studies.
