Mark G.E. Kelly THINKING POLITICS Series Editors: Matthew Sharpe and Geoff Boucher Politics in the twenty-first century is immensely complex and multi-faceted, and alternative theorisations of debates that radically renew older ideas have grown from a trickle to a flood in the past twenty years. The most interesting and relevant contemporary thinkers have responded to new political challenges – such as liberal multiculturalism, new directions in feminist thinking, theories of global empire and biopolitical power, and challenges to secularism – by widening the scope of their intellectual engagements and responding to the new politics. The thinkers selected for inclusion in the series have all responded to the urgency and complexity of thinking about politics today in fresh ways. Books in the series will provide clear and accessible introductions to the major ideas in contemporary thinking about politics, through a focus in each volume on a key political thinker. Rather than a roll-call of the ‘usual suspects’, it will focus on new thinkers who offer provocative new directions and some neglected older thinkers whose relevance is becoming clear as a result of the changing situation. www.euppublishing.com/series/thpo FOUCAULT AND POLITICS A CRITICAL INTRODUCTION 2 Mark G.

I will, however, constrain myself here to thanking those who have aided in some direct way with the production of this book. Thanks are due to Adam Jasper Smith and the Faculty of Design, Architecture and Building of the University of Technology, Sydney, for arranging an honorary fellowship for me there, which provided me with library services vital to the production of this book during an early phase of research. Thanks also to my former students Lenin Gatus and Tracy Sealey for their proofreading. On the publishing side, I’d like to acknowledge Carol Macdonald for initially suggesting the idea of writing a more introductory book on Foucault’s political thought, and for bringing me on to Edinburgh University Press’s list; I would like to thank Geoff Boucher and Matt Sharpe for welcoming my contribution to their series, and the staff at Edinburgh’s politics division for their patience. This book incorporates some brief phrases, shorter than a sen- tence in length, from my Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy article, ‘Michel Foucault’s Political Thought’. viii Introduction Foucault Now This is a book about Michel Foucault and politics. Its remit encom- passes Foucault’s own politics, his political thought and the political impact of that thought. Foucault’s name has become ubiquitous in the humanities and social sciences in recent decades, more commonly mentioned than that of any other thinker in history (Times Higher Education 2007), but its meaning remains ambiguous for all that. Politically, it has been turned to a variety of contradictory purposes, from updat- ing Marxism to defending liberalism. The possibilities for diver- sity in the use of Foucault’s name are in no small part due to the diversity of positions he himself took during his twenty-five-year career. While Foucault has been invoked by a range of causes, people want to invoke him not because he was clearly a member of their ideological tendency but because he was an original thinker who defied categorisation. In the words of his sometime friend Gilles Deleuze (1988, 30), with Foucault’s work it was ‘as if finally, some- thing new were emerging in the wake of Marx’. That is, to unpack the hyperbolic implications of this characterisation, Foucault’s work is the most important contribution to political thought since that of Karl Marx a century before. I’m sure most experts on political thought would think this an exaggeration. I, however, do not. While I can hardly claim to know a century of political ideas in its entirety, it seems to me that Foucault is the most significant political thinker of the twentieth century. I do not expect you to agree with me, but perhaps you will take the fact that it is possible for me sincerely to make such a statement as indicative that Foucault’s thought at least holds some import. His radical reconception of power in particular seems to me to be a watershed moment in the history of political thought, albeit one that has still yet to be fully thought through. In the profusion of usages of his concepts, Foucault’s users almost 1 foucault and politics all backslide towards more conventional, and in a few cases more nihilistic, positions than he himself took. Despite the political importance of Foucault’s thought, and perhaps to some extent because of its radicalness, the study of politics is an area in which Foucault was until recently relatively neglected by com- parison with other social sciences and the literary humanities. His reception in political studies is mainly oriented towards the decade of his output, the 1970s, during which his work was at its most overtly political, and during which a single, crucial shift occurred. Two con- cepts of Foucault’s from this time, ‘biopolitics’ and ‘governmentality’, have been particularly influential in this area. The appropriation of these concepts has gone in widely diverging directions, which was to an extent Foucault’s own intention, inasmuch as he presented his thought during its more political phase after 1970 as being a concep- tual ‘toolbox’ from which one might take what one needs (DE2 523). Without diminishing the shifts in Foucault’s position over time, I will argue that he was consistently radical and, in a certain sense, pro- gressive. There are several problems for this account, however, which must be considered fully. One is that, during a major part in his career, political concerns were superficially almost absent from his work. This could be said to be another reason for his relatively late take-up in politics compared to other academic disciplines. Foucault published eleven books during his lifetime. The immediate picture that emerges from these is not one of a primarily political thinker. Only three of these books are overtly political – and one of those, ‘The Order of Discourse’, is largely apolitical and so short that when it was translated into English it appeared as a journal article rather than a book. These three political books form a series, written between 1970 and 1976, under the rubric of ‘genealogy’. If one looks only at Foucault’s books, this phase might seem a relatively minor one. During the second half of his career, between 1970 and 1984, he published only five books, compared to six between 1954 and 1969. However, if one looks at the material by Foucault that is now, posthumously available in print, the quantity from the later period dwarfs that from the first.

  • Biopower and Pedagogy: Local Spaces and Institutional Technologies
    Composition Forum 15, Spring 2006 Biopower and Pedagogy: Local Spaces and Institutional Technologies John Wittman Introduction Like others on September 11, 2001, I woke to the news that the World Trade Centers had been hit by passenger planes. As I watched CNN that morning I saw footage of one of the hijacked planes collide with the second tower and later as both towers crumbled. I tried to grasp the significance of what had happened on my way to school but was still quite bewildered when I entered my office, which I shared with four other graduate students. One of my officemates frantically called her friends in New York until she confirmed they were okay. In the offices down the hall several other colleagues were having similar reactions. I went through the rest of the day emotionally numb, still unable to really comprehend the totality of the day’s events but knowing it must be great. Late that afternoon, as I sat on a large curved concrete bench outside the university’s museum, a late 1960s Ford Bronco with four young passengers began to make several passes in front of me. Two males were sitting in the front bucket seats and two females were sitting in the back. The Bronco was olive green and had a faded black roll bar and no top. The students had duct­taped an American flag on the back of the roll­bar, and it stood about two feet above the upper rung. There was no cheering from any of the students, no anti­Afghani nor anti­Iraqi slogans.

  • Écrits a Selection Translated by Alan Sheridan with a Foreword by Malcolm Bowie
    Jacques Lacan Écrits A selection Translated by Alan Sheridan With a foreword by Malcolm Bowie London and New York 3 THE FUNCTION AND FIELD OF SPEECH AND LANGUAGE IN PSYCHOANALYSIS PREFACE ‘In particular, it should not be forgotten that the division into embryology, anatomy, physiology, psychology, sociology and clinical medicine does not exist in nature and there is only one discipline: a neurobiology to which observation obliges us to add the epithet human when it concerns us.’ (Quotation chosen as an inscription on an Institute of Psychoanalysis in 1952) Before proceeding to the report itself, something should be said of the surrounding circumstances. For they had some effect on it. The theme was suggested to the author as the basis of the customary theoretical report for the annual meeting of the society, which, at that time, represented psychoanalysis in France. For eighteen years, this society had pursued what had become a venerable tradition under the title ‘Congrès des Psychanalystes de langue française’, then, for two years this congress had been extended to psychoanalysts speaking any of the Romance languages (Holland being included out of linguistic tolerance). The Congress in question took place in Rome in September. Meanwhile, serious disagreements led to a secession in the French group. These disagreements came to a head on the occasion of the foundation of an ‘institute of psychoanalysis’. The group that had succeeded in imposing its statutes and programme on the new institute was then heard to declare that it would prevent the member who, with others, had tried to introduce a different conception into the institute, from speaking at Rome, and it tried every means in its power to do so.

  • Late Victorian Literature and the Biopolitics of Empire
    Life Expectancies: Late Victorian Literature and the Biopolitics of Empire by Jessica Leigh Davies A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Rhetoric in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Barbara Spackman, Co-chair Professor Charis Thompson, Co-chair Associate Professor David Bates Assistant Professor Donna Jones Associate Professor Ramona Naddaff Associate Professor Michael Wintroub Spring 2010 © Jessica Leigh Davies, 2010 Abstract Life Expectancies: Late Victorian Literature and the Biopolitics of Empire by Jessica Leigh Davies Doctor of Philosophy in Rhetoric University of California, Berkeley Professor Barbara Spackman, Co-chair Professor Charis Thompson, Co-chair By the end of the nineteenth century, the rise of evolutionary thinking had produced a radical new understanding of life as the underlying connectedness of all living beings. If only the fittest would survive, the problem was no longer about how to differentiate between species, as it had been for the philosophical tradition since Aristotle, but how to articulate differences within a species. This dissertation analyzes the complex relationship between biology, politics and power that emerged in late Victorian literature. I examine the ways in which biological thinking was never limited to biology itself, nor was it a metaphorical technique used to describe social relations or simply a way to transcribe a political discourse into biological terms. I argue that the difference between biology and politics completely collapsed, and that this indistinguishability functioned to expand and justify British colonialism. Inspired by Michel Foucault’s work on biopower, I demonstrate and expand his theory of nineteenth century biopolitics as a form of power that takes biological life as both its subject and object through a series of regulatory controls leveraged at entire populations.

  • Power and Bodily Practice: Applying the Work of Foucault to an Anthropology of the Body
    Power and Bodily Practice: Applying the Work of Foucault to an Anthropology of the Body JenPylypa In opposition to theories of power which focus on the domination of one group by another, Michel Foucault coined the tenn "biopower" to refer to the ways in which power manifests itself in the fonn of daily practices and routines through which individuals engage in self-surveillance and self-discipline, and thereby subjugate themselves. Biopower is a useful concept for medical anthropology because it focuses on the body as the site of subjugation, and because it highlights how individuals are implicated in their own oppression as they participate in habitual daily practices such as the self-regulation of hygiene, health, and sexuality. Yet few medical anthropologists have taken advantage of Foucault's framework to illuminate how both the individual and society are involved in perpetuating such practices. This paper brings together Foucault's theory and three concrete examples of bodily practice in Western culture, demonstrating how behaviors associated with physical fitness, femininity, and obstetrical practices all contribute to the creation of "docile bodies". The article ends by considering why some scholars have found Foucault's conception of power to be problematic. Keywords: Foucault, power, health, fitness, femininity, anorexia, obstetrics, women, medical anthropology Michel Foucault coined the term "biopower" to refer to what he viewed as the dominant system of social control in modern Western society. He argued that over the past few centuries, Europe has witnessed a decrease in coercive mechanisms of control such as military force, and an increase in social control through individual self-discipline.

By the 1960s our generation's teachers and mentors, perhaps battered by the McCarthy years or humbled by the dazzling successes of their colleagues in the "hard" sciences, had redrawn the disciplinary boundaries tightly enough to make almost any speculative work fall outside the realm of legitimate philosophy and into the realm ofliberal politics or sociology (read: soft-headed nonsense) or that of literature (read: girl stuff).

  • Geographic Thought a Praxis Perspective
    GEOGRAPHIC THOUGHT Without social movements and wider struggles for progressive social change, the field of Geography would lack much of its contemporary relevance and vibrancy. Moreover, these struggles and the geographical scholarship that engages with them have changed the philosophical underpinnings of the discipline and have inflected the quest for geographical knowledge with a sense not only of urgency but also hope. This reader, intended for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate courses in Geographic Thought, is at once an analysis of Geography’s theoretical and practical concerns and an encounter with grounded political struggles. This reader offers a fresh approach to learning about Geographic Thought by showing, through concrete examples and detailed editorial essays, how the discipline has been forever altered by the rise of progressive social struggles. Structured to aid student understanding, the anthology presents substantive main and part introductory essays and features more than two dozen unabridged published works by leading scholars that emphatically articulate geographic thought to progressive social change. Each section is introduced with an explanation of how the following pieces fit into the broader context of geographic work amidst the socially progressive struggles that have altered social relations in various parts of the world over the last half-century or so. Doubly, it places this work in the context of the larger goals of social struggles to frame or reframe rights, justice, and ethics. Geographic Thought provides readers with insights into the encounters between scholarship and practice and aims to prompt debates over how social and geographical knowledges arise from the context of social struggles and how these knowledges might be redirected at those contexts in constructive, evaluative ways.

  • ON BIOPOLITICS in QUEER THEORY I Am Entering This, and Any
    Jasmine Rault ON BIOPOLITICS IN QUEER THEORY I am entering this, and any, conversation about Foucault from the angle of feminist queer theory – as well as the over- whelmingly Anglo-North American angle from which queer theory has been largely generated – and so I want to talk a little today about how his work influenced and continues to inform this field. Certainly from the time that queer theory was con- solidating into what would become known as a field, Foucault was central.1 In 1990 Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick published Epistemology of the Closet and Judith Butler published Gender Trouble which, along with Gloria Anzaldúa’s Borderlands, pub- lished three years earlier, have become grounding texts in the early canon of queer theory2 – texts which each engage from different places the relationship between sex and biopower. Indeed, these early works might be the best way to introduce what becomes a sort of cleavage in queer theory’s engagement with Foucault – between a focus on the productive effects of power in the emergence and regulation of the category of ‘sex’ and ‘sexual identity’ and, on the other hand, a focus on the production and regulation of populations, race and state rac- ism. In Gender Trouble Butler asked us to recognize that power produced the apparent stability or originality of sex through a deployment of disciplinary norms of hetero-gender, but in what might be cast as a departure from Foucault, Butler leaned on Freudian psychoanalysis to thematize the sort of agential (though mostly unconscious) subversion of power effected through the redeployment, denaturalization and rematerializa- 97 On Biopolitics in Queer Theory tion of these norms – in an effort to disrupt the ease with which gay death was being accepted and administered by the state.
