Foucault Beyond Foucault Power and Its Intensifications Since 1984

InFoucault Beyond FoucaultJeffrey Nealon argues that critics have too hastily abandoned Foucault's mid-career reflections on power, and offers a revisionist reading of the philosopher's middle and later works. Retracing power's "intensification" in Foucault, Nealon argues that forms of political power remain central to Foucault's concerns. He allows us to reread Foucault's own conceptual itinerary and, more importantly, to think about how we might respond to the mutations of power that have taken place since the philosopher's death in 1984. In this, the book stages an overdue encounter between Foucault and post-Marxist economic history.Nealon, Jeffrey T. is the author of 'Foucault Beyond Foucault Power and Its Intensifications Since 1984', published 2007 under ISBN 9780804757027 and ISBN 080475702X.
