  • The Art of 'Governing Nature': 'Green' Governmentality
    THE ART OF ‘GOVERNING NATURE’: ‘GREEN’ GOVERNMENTALITY AND THE MANAGEMENT OF NATURE by KRISTAN JAMES HART A thesis submitted to the Graduate Program in Environmental Studies In conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Masters of Environmental Studies Queen„s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada (September, 2011) Copyright ©Kristan James Hart, 2011 Abstract This thesis seeks to unpack the notions of Michael Foucault's late work on governmentality and what insights it might have for understanding the „governing of nature‟. In doing this it also operates as a critique of what is often termed 'resourcism', a way of evaluating nature which only accounts for its utility for human use and does not give any acceptance to the idea of protecting nature for its own sake, or any conception of a nature that cannot be managed. By utilizing a study of the govern-mentalities emerging throughout liberalism, welfare-liberalism and neoliberalism I argue that this form of 'knowing' nature-as-resource has always been internal to rationalities of liberal government, but that the bracketing out of other moral valuations to the logic of the market is a specific function of neoliberal rationalities of governing. I then seek to offer an analysis of the implications for this form of nature rationality, in that it is becoming increasingly globalized, and with that bringing more aspects of nature into metrics for government, bringing new justifications for intervening in „deficient‟ populations under the rubric of „sustainable development. I argue, that with this a new (global) environmental subject is being constructed; one that can rationally assess nature-as-resource in a cost-benefit logic of wise-use conservation.

  • Rethinking Governmentality
    ARTICLE IN PRESS + MODEL Political Geography xx (2006) 1e5 www.elsevier.com/locate/polgeo Rethinking governmentality Stuart Elden* Department of Geography, Durham University, South Road, Durham, DH1 3LE, United Kingdom On 1st February 1978 at the Colle`ge de France, Michel Foucault gave the fourth lecture of his course Se´curite´, Territoire, Population [Security, Territory, Population]. This lecture, which became known simply as ‘‘Governmentality’’, was first published in Italian, and then in English in the journal Ideology and Consciousness in 1979. In 1991 it was reprinted in The Foucault Effect, a collection which brought together work by Foucault and those inspired by him (Burch- ell, Gordon, & Miller, 1991). Developing from this single lecture has been a veritable cottage industry of material, across the social sciences, including geography, of ‘governmentality studies’. In late 2004 the full lecture course and the linked course from the following year were pub- lished by Seuil/Gallimard as Se´curite´, Territoire, Population: Cours au Colle`ge de France (1977e1978) and Naissance de la biopolitique: Cours au Colle`ge de France (1978e1979) [The Birth of Biopolitics]. The lectures were edited by Michel Senellart, and the publication was timed to coincide with the 20th anniversary of Foucault’s death. They are currently being translated into English by Graham Burchell, and we publish an excerpt from the first lecture of the Security, Territory, Population course here. Given the interest of geographers in the notion of governmentality, the publication of the lectures is likely to have a significant impact. The concept of governmentality has produced a range of important studies, including those in a range of disciplines (see, for example, Barry, Osborne, & Rose, 1996; Dean, 1999; Lemke, 1997; Senellart, 1995; Walters & Haahr, 2004; Walters & Larner, 2004) as well as some analyses from within geography (Braun, 2000; Cor- bridge, Williams, Srivastava, & Veron, 2005; Hannah, 2000; Huxley, 2007; Legg, 2006).

  • GEO 755 Political Ecology: Nature, Culture, Power Syllabus
    Political Ecology: Nature, Culture, Power Geography 755 Tuesdays, 5:00-7:45pm, Eggers 155 Professor Tom Perreault Eggers 529 Office Hours: Tuesdays 2:00-4:00pm or by appointment [email protected] 443-9467 Course Overview This course surveys key themes in the field of political ecology. We will examine the political economies of environmental change, as well as the ways in which our understandings of nature are materially and discursively bound up with notions of culture and the production of subjectivity. The course does not attempt to present a comprehensive review of the political ecology literature. Rather, it is a critical exploration of theories and themes related to nature, political economy, and culture; themes that, to my mind, fundamentally underlie the relationship between society and environment. The course is divided into four sections: (I) “Foundations of Political Ecology: Core Concepts and Key Debates” examines the intellectual foundations and key debates of political ecology as a field; (II) “Governing Nature” examines capitalist transformations of nature, with a particular focus on neoliberalism and commodification, and the modes of environmental governance they engender; (III) “Nature and Subjectivity” focuses on subjectivity and the production of social difference, and how these are experienced in relation to nature; and (IV) “Spaces and Scales of Political Ecology” considers three key spheres of political ecological research: (a) agrarian political economy and rural livelihoods; (b) urban political ecology; and (c) the Anthropocene. No seminar can be completely comprehensive in its treatment of a given field, and this class is no exception. There are large and well-developed literatures within political ecology that are not included in the course schedule.

  • 6. Neoliberal Governmentality: Foucault on the Birth of Biopolitics
    MICHAEL A. PETERS 6. NEOLIBERAL GOVERNMENTALITY: FOUCAULT ON THE BIRTH OF BIOPOLITICS The political, ethical, social, philosophical problem of our days is not to liberate the individual from the State and its institutions, but to liberate ourselves from the State and the type of individualisation linked to it (Foucault, 1982, p. 216). Power is exercised only over free subjects, and only insofar as they are free. (Foucault, 1982, p. 221). INTRODUCTION In his governmentality studies in the late 1970s Foucault held a course at the Collège de France the major forms of neoliberalism, examining the three theoretical schools of German ordoliberalism, the Austrian school characterised by Hayek, and American neoliberalism in the form of the Chicago school. Among Foucault’s great insights in his work on governmentality was the critical link he observed in liberalism between the governance of the self and government of the state – understood as the exercise of political sovereignty over a territory and its population. He focuses on government as a set of practices legitimated by specific rationalities and saw that these three schools of contemporary economic liberalism focused on the question of too much government – a permanent critique of the state that Foucault considers as a set of techniques for governing the self through the market. Liberal modes of governing, Foucault tells us, are distinguished in general by the ways in which they utilise the capacities of free acting subjects and, consequently, modes of government differ according to the value and definition accorded the concept of freedom. These different mentalities of rule, thus, turn on whether freedom is seen as a natural attribute as with the philosophers of the Scottish Enlightenment, a product of rational choice making, or, as with Hayek, a civiliz- ational artefact theorised as both negative and anti-naturalist.

  • 77 Foucauldian Spaces Round Table Discussion
    © Foucault Studies DOI: https://doi.org/10.22439/fs.v0i24.5527 ISSN: 1832-5203 Foucault Studies, No. 24, pp. 77-101, June 2018 Foucauldian Spaces Round Table Discussion with Lynne Huffer, Steven Ogden, Paul Patton, and Jana Sawicki, Joanna Crosby and Dianna Taylor: The theme of this special section of Foucault Studies, “Foucauldian Spaces,” emerged out of the 2016 meeting of the Foucault Circle, where the four of you were participants. Each of the three individual papers contained in the special section critically deploys and/or reconceptualizes an aspect of Foucault’s work that engages and offers particular insight into the construction, experience, and utilization of space. We’d like to ask the four of you to reflect on what makes a space Foucauldian, and whether or not (and why or why not) you’d consider the space created by the convergence of and intellectual exchanges among an international group of Foucault scholars at the University of New South Wales in the summer of 2016 to be Foucauldian. Lynne Huffer: With the very first words of History of Madness (1961), Foucault draws his readers into an intensely spatial conception of history: At the end of the Middle Ages, leprosy disappeared from the Western world. At the edges of the community, at town gates, large, barren, uninhabitable areas appeared, where the disease no longer reigned but its ghost still hovered. For centuries, these spaces would belong to the domain of the inhuman.1 I read this invocation of “large, barren, uninhabitable” spaces at the edge of the human as an opening frame for apprehending Foucault’s life-long attention to the violence of humanism and the historical sedimentation under which that violence is buried.

  • Michel Foucault's Lecture at the Collège De France on Neo-Liberal Governmentality
    1 "The Birth of Bio-Politics" – Michel Foucault's Lecture at the Collège de France on Neo-Liberal Governmentality From 1970 until his death in 1984, Michel Foucault held the Chair of "History of Systems of Thought" at the Collège de France.1 In his public lectures delivered each Wednesday from early January through to the end of March/beginning of April, he reported on his research goals and findings, presenting unpublished material and new conceptual and theoretical research tools. Many of the ideas developed there were later to be taken up in his various book projects. However, he was in fact never to elaborate in writing on some of the research angles he presented there. Foucault's early and unexpected death meant that two of the key series of lectures have remained largely unpublished ever since, namely the lectures held in 1978 ("Sécurité, territoire et population") and in 1979 ("La naissance de la biopolitique").2 These lectures focused on the "genealogy of the modern state" (Lect. April 5, 1978/1982b, 43). Foucault deploys the concept of government or "governmentality" as a "guideline" for the analysis he offers by way of historical reconstructions embracing a period starting from Ancient Greek through to modern neo-liberalism (Foucault 1978b, 719). I wish to emphasize two points here, as they seem important for an adequate assessment of the innovative potential of the notion of governmentality. First of all, the concept of governmentality demonstrates Foucault's working hypothesis on the reciprocal constitution of power techniques and forms of knowledge. The semantic linking of governing ("gouverner") and modes of thought ("mentalité") indicates that it is not possible to study the technologies of power without an analysis of the political rationality underpinning them.

  • Michel Foucault, Fearless Speech. Edited by Joseph Pearson. (Los Angeles: Semiotext(E), 2001), 183 Pages
    BOOK REVIEWS 77 Michel Foucault, Fearless Speech. Edited by Joseph Pearson. (Los Angeles: Semiotext(e), 2001), 183 pages. Andrew Knighton University of Minnesota In a 1986 conversation with Robert Maggiori (published in English in Negotiations, Columbia University Press, 1995), the French philosopher Gilles Delenze cautioned against regarding Michel Foucault as a sort of "intellectual guru." Instead, in defiance of a trend whose momentum has yet ceased to abate, he insists on situating Foucault in a larger conversation—with the theorists that were his contemporaries, with the problems in his work, and with himself. A Foucault lecture, then, is seen to resemble less a sermon than it does a concert—the performance of "a soloist 'accompanied' by everyone else." In spite of that caveat, Deleuze concludes, simply, that "Foucault gave wonderful lectures." This assertion of Foucault's oratorical acumen will surprise few who have read, for example, his inaugural lecture at the College de France in 1970 ("The Order of Discourse"). Even less surprising is that some of his lectures prove better than others. As we are reminded by the editor of Semiotext(e)'s Fearless Speech (a collection of talks delivered as part of a 1983 Berkeley seminar entitled "Discourse and Truth") these transcribed lectures do not reflect Foucault's notes or intentions, and, being published after his death, lack his imprimatur. And while this may partially account for their occasional flatness, they are further hindered by having to stand on their own, without the contextualization necessary to animate their themes. Fearless Speech can, however, come alive, if regarded as an index of a crucial turning point in the development of Foucault's thought.

  • Foucauldian Madness: a Historiographical Anti-Psychiatry
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Invention (IJHSSI) ISSN (Online): 2319 – 7722, ISSN (Print): 2319 – 7714 www.ijhssi.org ||Volume 9 Issue 6 Ser. II || June 2020 || PP 48-51 Foucauldian Madness: A Historiographical Anti-psychiatry Bhaskar Sarkar M.A, Department of Sociology, University of Hyderabad ABSTRACT- Foucault has been criticized as anti-psychiatric in nature yet his scepticism toward madness is actually based on its institutionalized treatment not in its academic reception. This paper tries to trace back Foucauldian inspirations in historiography of psychiatry and its power relations in asylum. Presuming madness as social construction, the paper tries to establish the limitations of pseudoscientific, moral assumptions toward insanity. Historiographical examination has been suggested here to reduce the psychiatric predispositions with threat for the civilization while it proves that insanity is a product of civilization.Everywhere the capitalist world order is associated with established religious morality. Presuming this, the reception toward insanity, academically and socially, has been challenged in this paper in order to theorize anti-disciplinary insanity into consideration.

Since the 1970s, biopolitical concerns have shifted towards non-human popula- tions and the reproduction of natural resources and ecosystems. This has become evident in the European fisheries, where after decades of exploitation greatly intensified since the 1960s, the extractive demands of the fishing industry have caught up with the reproductive capacities of most commercially targeted fish stocks. This contradiction has given rise to a new political economy of ‘improvements’ that seeks to sustain the biological health of commercially targeted fish populations while maintaining an economically profitable fishing industry. Central to this transition is the active role that fishers are expected to play in sustainably managing the fish stocks they exploit while adapting to ‘green’ market opportunities. Tradeable quota systems, eco-accreditation schemes and community-based resource management have all emerged as managerial strategies for inciting the active participation of fishers in this ‘common’ project of sustainable development.
