This is an interesting problem.
You would perhaps be best to speak to someone in France about it.
I'm not sure that there are people in France who spend their whole
lives studying Foucault - perhaps he's just not that exotic to
them? Pierre Macherey for example has written important essays
Foucault, but his main interest is in Spinoza, and he seems to have
written at least as much on Canguilhem (who I believe supervised both
him and Foucault) as on Foucault. He is retired now but maybe
someone at his university (Lille III) is also working on Foucault.
If you are comfortable speaking and writing in French you might try
there. I know of at least two people from English-speaking countries
who studied there with him in the 1990s.
Here's his website:

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone could help me with the following problem:
while browsing through post-graduate "brochures" of French
universities, especially that of EHESS's department of Political
Science (who's research centre is named Raymond Aron - I am well
aware of that) I could not find anyone (meaning professors) whose
work would primarily deal with Michel Foucault (I have browsed
through JSTOR, SAGE and persee.fr).
The question is therefore the following: is the university
Vincennes-St.Denis »the (only) place« in France where foucauldian
research is being conducted or has it become (because of it's
»nature«) so dispersed that it is everywhere yet nowhere…?
If someone could direct me to some/one/place with usefull
information it would be greatelly appreciated.
Best Regards, Goran Gaber
