Re: reach... the absurd

Gee, if you realy was aware about Foucault you should
know that all foucault did was philosophy, all his
work is philosophical. the terms biopower have nothing
to do with sense you try to put it in. Biopower means
the way that the power in the west hugs and rules the
life - the body and its life: its sexuality, the space
of the body, the details of its life. I am writing my
diplom work on Foucault. and he is a philosopher. I
dont think that Foucault is full of shit, as You see,
i just claim that your "analys" as You name it, have
nothing to the with his terms.
