One of the most promising developments in social and political
theory in recent years is the research being done in the field of
"political genealogy." Scholars employing political genealogy as a
methodology represent a wide range of disciplines, from the social
sciences to the humanities, from philosophy to geography to urban
studies to cultural theory. Yet there has never been a
comprehensive study of political genealogy itself. Empowerment: The
Theory and Practice of Political Genealogy lays the groundwork for
the recognition of political genealogy as a methodology and model
of theoretical inquiry, one that will be taken up by scholars from
a broad range of academic disciplines. Along the way, it critically
assesses some of the best examples of work in political genealogy,
showing how this work forces us to rethink many of the key concepts
in political theory, such as sovereignty, representation, and
violence. In helping us to understand the history of our present,
it looks to our future and to what being a political subject will
look like in a post-representational world.
