Re-reading Foucault: On Law, Power and Rights is the first
collection in English fully to address the relevance of Michel
Foucault's thought for law. Foucault is the best known and most
cited of the late twentieth-century's 'theory' academics. His work
continues to animate a range of different critical work across
intellectual disciplines in the arts, humanities and social
sciences. There has, however, been relatively little examination of
the legal implications and applications of Foucault's work. This
book fills that gap, providing an in-depth analysis of Foucault's
thought as it pertains to a range of different legal themes, such
as: the opposition between 'law' and 'the juridical'; the problem
of moral and legal judgment; the historical basis of rights; and
the political dimensions (and limitations) of contemporary human
rights discourse. Including contributions from acknowledged experts
on Foucault's work, as well as pieces by younger scholars,
Re-reading Foucault: On Law, Power and Rights will be of
considerable interest across a range of disciplines, including law,
philosophy, political theory, sociology, social theory and
criminology.
