Foucault Explained! Michel Foucault's philosophy is difficult. It's hard to read. It's hard to understand. This video is intended to provide you with help understanding Foucault. What does Foucault mean by Power? What is "The Subject" for Foucault? We'll talk about all of this here. In a 1982 essay entitled "The Subject and Power," Foucault tried to make his whole philosophical project clear. He explained the focus of his research, what questions he was trying to answer them and how he was trying to answer them. Foucault is an extremely influential thinker, so understanding his work can be very helpful. I hope this video is of some use. ❤
