دانلود کتاب Re-Reading Foucault: On Law, Power and Rights

توضیحاتی در مورد کتاب به زبان اصلی :

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.
