Discipline and Punish: The Birth of the Prison
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present La Volonté de Savoir, the methodological introduction of a projected five-volume history of sexuality, which seems to have a special fascination for Foucault: the gradual emergence of medicine as an institution, the birth of political economy, demography and linguistics as human sciences, the invention of incarceration and confinement for the control of the "other" in society (the mad, the libertine, the criminal) and that special violence that lurks beneath the power to control discourse.
The Subject and Power
TL;DR: The ideas which I would like to discuss here represent neither a theory nor a methodology as mentioned in this paper, but rather a history of different modes by which, in our culture, human beings are made subjects.
