[Foucault-L] Foucault-Habermas Debate


Dear all,

I am in my fourth year at the University of Edinburgh and have decided to do my dissertation on Foucault and in particular the ‘debate’ that he had with Habermas over the term ‘power’. I am in the very early stages of the project and am in need of some advice. Would anyone be able to tell me what the central area of conflict between the two was and know where Foucault best outlines his opinion of power and where Habermas outlines his? Also are there any secondary sources that I may find useful?

Any help is much appreciated.

Best,

Terrence
