Greetings everyone,
I am a new member to this list...By way of introduction I live in Aotearoa
New Zealand and I am interested in Foucault by way of sovereignty, biopower
and power generally, particularly as they play out in colonial contexts like
my own where indigneous soveriegnty is denied and white privilege is
overwhelming. In this regard Ann Laura Stoler's work on colonial
governmentality have been very influential on my appreciation for Foucault.
I have almost completed an MA thesis which explores the interface of
biopower, race and white privilege in the formation of Leftist (white)
subjects and pro-Maori soveriegnty (also white) subjects.
Regards,
Jakob
