My colleague Alan Hunt -- you can reach him at the address I give below --
is in the middle of an extended publication project on Foucault and the
law. He has just published a book, for example -- GOVERNANCE OF THE
CONSUMING PASSIONS: A HISTORY OF SUMPTUARY LAW -- and he has a number of
journal aticles on the topic. The book is published in England, but not
yet available here. He is in Vancouver at the moment giving a series of
invited lectures in the Faculty of Law at the University of British
Columbia on Foucault and the Law. Hunt has a joint appointment here in
the departments of Sociology and Law. I am sure that if you wrote him,
even by EMAIL, that he would give you references etc. so that you could
get on with hisnmaterial,
