Hi there:
Could anyone point me to the site where Foucault claims that
problematization is always dangerous or risky. I believe it's in an
interview, perhaps in the context of the question of resistance in his
work. I seem to recall that he says something like problematization is
a dangerous business, that this is his politics, but that others need to
do their own work to resist, rather than relying on him for doing the
work for them. I hope I'm not hallucinating all this.
Thanks.

"Judgment prevents the emergence of any new mode of existence. . . .
Herein, perhaps, lies the secret: to bring into existence and not to
judge. If it is so disgusting to judge, it is not because everything is
of equal value, but on the contrary because what has value can be made
or distinguished only by defying judgment" (Gilles Deleuze).
