An Introduction to Foucault and His Concepts
Listen now
Description
In this episode of Concepts in Focus, Will lays out a handful of key concepts in the popular works of Michel Foucault. What does Foucault’s genealogy of sovereignty’s passage to discipline tell us about the politics of the body? What is Foucault’s understanding of the function of history? What does it mean when we say power has a hold on life? This episode is a general overview but has commentary that will be of interest to those invested in our turtleneck’d anti-carceral friend.
