Now, we've got an interesting topic of discussion.
You think Foucault came to regret the reduction of truth to power in the
1977 essay I noted. Please explain the switch and the reasons behind it.
On a quick glance, undermining the power/knowledge relationship in Foucault
would seem to undermine most of what he wrote.
