There have been many comments about Foucault being influenced by 
Heidegger. Now we know that Heidegger discarded both correspondence and 
coherence theory and forwarded his phenomenological theory of 
unconcealedness. My guess is that this tells us more about Foucault's 
ideas than modernist utilitarian ethics.
