PHI-4140: Foucault: Discourse and Discipline

Foucault’s work on history and social philosophy has shaped the development of various fields from literary theory, to criminology, to psychology and gender studies. This course grounds students in Foucauldian theories and concepts, considers various ways they’ve been applied, and also weighs the more substantial criticisms of his work. To have a good understanding of Foucault is to have a good grasp on many of the significant movements - in philosophy, social science, and political activism - of the current moment.
