Freedom and the subject were guiding themes for Michel Foucault
throughout his philosophical career. In this clear and
comprehensive analysis of his thought, Johanna Oksala identifies
the different interpretations of freedom in his philosophy and
examines three major divisions of it: the archaeological, the
genealogical, and the ethical. She shows convincingly that in order
to appreciate Foucault's project fully we must understand his
complex relationship to phenomenology, and she discusses Foucault's
treatment of the body in relation to recent feminist work on this
topic. Her sophisticated but lucid book illuminates the
possibilities that Foucault's philosophy opens up for us in
thinking about freedom.
