Comrades:
I would like to pose a question specially conceived for the holiday
season: did foucault ever write anything about the history of the
family? I know he makes some mention in D&P of the "swarming of
panoptic techniques", which necessarily impose themselves upon the
family and the space of the home, and I know there are passages in
history of sexuality vol I which talk about the deployment of sexuality,
and how this was superimposed on an earlier deployment of kinship. Does
anyone know of an interview, or a good secondary source that deals with
the family from a foucaultian point of view?
