It also illustrates how his thought has been used in the political sphere and examines the importance of his work for politics today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne of the most prominent theorists in the contemporary humanities and social sciences, Foucault is known as a radical thinker who disturbs our understanding of society. He also presented a moving target, continually changing his concerns and his apparent position. So, until now, comparatively little attention has been given to his politics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbbreviations; Acknowledgements; Introduction; 1.
