Michel Foucault has become famous for a series of books that have permanently altered our understanding of many institutions of Western society. He analyzed mental institutions in the remarkable Madness and Civilization; hospitals in The Birth of the Clinic; prisons in Discipline and Punish; and schools and families in The History of Sexuality. But the general reader as well as the specialist is apt to miss the consistent purposes that lay behind these difficult individual studies, thus losing sight of the broad social vision and political aims that unified them.
.
Now, in this superb set of essays and interviews, Foucault has provided a much-needed guide to Foucault. These pieces, ranging over the entire spectrum of his concerns, enabled Foucault, in his most intimate and accessible voice, to interpret the conclusions of his research in each area and to demonstrate the contribution of each to the magnificent -- and terrifying -- portrait of society that he was patiently compiling.
.
For, as Foucault shows, what he was always describing was the nature of power in society; not the conventional treatment of power that concentrates on powerful individuals and repressive institutions, but the much more pervasive and insidious mechanisms by which power "reaches into the very grain of individuals, touches their bodies and inserts itself into their actions and attitudes, their discourses, learning processes and everyday lives"
.
Foucault's investigations of prisons, schools, barracks, hospitals, factories, cities, lodgings, families, and other organized forms of social life are each a segment of one of the most astonishing intellectual enterprises of all time -- and, as this book proves, one which possesses profound implications for understanding the social control of our bodies and our minds.

Annotation
Focault interprets his writtings about sexuality, politics and punishment.
之前一直只把福柯当符号使用,什么后现代后结构解构一切权力知识撒胡椒一样地乱用一通,自然也会觉得福柯站在一个解构历史和权力弥散的立场上会觉得没有什么可用的抗争之道。看了《疯颠与文明》和《规训与惩罚》后还是觉得合起书来一片虚无。还是觉得他对抗争不抱希望/没有兴趣...
評分Well,这个其实是很多理论家的评论。不过最近看的是Foucault,就贴Foucault这本书下面吧。 前两天看别人的blog上提到Foucault,说诸位想不到吧,左翼的福柯同志也反对苏联那种革命的形式,因为即使革命摧毁了旧的国家机器,无产阶级专政还得弄出一个新的国家机器来,结果当然...

作弊般清晰的最後關於性史的兩篇.."I am well aware that I have never written anything but fictions"!
评分以前讀過有一定相似度的中文版,那本的名字我很喜歡,叫《權力的眼睛》。當時讀完之後的感想是福柯的說法是否會導緻對知識和權力概念的消解。這次再讀,大概比上迴讀明白瞭一些。依然是權力,但是“Power is not only repressive, but also can induce pleasure, form knowledge, produce discourse”. 書中有一篇是福柯跟一個(對自己學科地位十分不自信的)地理學傢吵架,非常好玩,也值得一看。
评分現在看來,這樣的知識生産理論給我帶來的睏惑遠遠超過瞭它給我的啓發。
评分沒看過原著直接看采訪有些沒意思
评分講人話的福柯真是閃閃惹人愛(這本對話是對他著作極好的闡釋),但也有種深切的智商被大麵積碾壓感。
