Let's not say Rorty's critique of Foucault misses the complexity of his
understanding of power -- it simply gets it all wrong. Foucault, among
other things, apparently advocates total revolution, and thinks that humans
have an essential freedom that can be released via emancipation. This is,
to say the least, a ludicrous understanding of Foucault's work.
