Ton idee me sourit beaucoup. J'aimerais participer a une telle 
experience et vous suggere un court texte, dense et facile a lire: Le 
numero 194 des _Dits et Ecrits_. Il s'agit d'un cours de F. au College de 
France, tres connu, traitant du pouvoir. 

Ce texte existe en italien dans le _Microfisica del potere: interventi
politi, Turin, Einaudi, 1977, pp.  179-194. Il egalement ete traduit en
anglais, mais je n'arrive pas a me souvenir dans quel livre. Peut-etre 
est-ce _The Final Foucault_ de BERNAUER ou le _Companion_ ?

Qu'en pensez-vous?
