Foucault's Legacy brings together the work of eight Foucault
specialists in an important collection of essays marking the 25th
anniversary of Foucault's death. Focusing on the importance of
Foucault's most central ideas for present-day philosophy, the book
shows how his influence goes beyond his own canonical tradition and
linguistic milieu. The essays in this book explore key areas of
Foucault's thought by comparing aspects of his work with the
thought of a number of major philosophers, including Nietzsche,
Heidegger, Rorty, Hegel, Searle, Vattimo and Williams. Crucially
the book also considers the applicability of his central ideas to
broader issues such as totalitarianism, religion, and
self-sacrifice. Presenting a fresh and exciting vision of Foucault
as a philosopher of enduring influence, the book shows how
important Foucault remains to philosophy today.
