hi there
it was first published in french in:
"Le sex comme une moral" in: Le nouvel Observateur, No. 1021, Paris, June
1-6, 1984
said in an interview with F. by Hubert Dreyfus and Paul Rabinowich
> "Well, I wonder if our problem nowadays is not, in a way, similar
>to this one, since most of us no longer believe that ethics is founded in
>religion, nor do we want a legal system to intervene in our moral,
>personal, private life. Recent liberation movements suffer from the fact
>that they cannot find any principle on which to base the elaboration of a
>new ethics. They need an ethics, but they cannot find any other ethics
>than an ethics founded on so-called scientific knowledge of what the self
>is, what desire is, what the unconscious is, and so on. I am struck by
>this similarity of problems."
>
>"On the Genealogy of Ethics: An Overview of Work in Progress," _Foucault
>Reader_, ed. Paul Rabinow (New York: Pantheon, 1984), p. 343.
