« Marx sans guillemets » : Foucault, la gouvernementalité et la critique du néolibéralisme
Traduit de l’anglais par Marc Chemali
Thomas Lemke
The « micro-physics of power » that Foucault proposed in
the beginning of the 1970s for the analysis of power relations encountered two serious
theoretical problems. It did not sufficiently explain processes of subjectivation and lacked
an adequate concept of the state. The problematics of government that Foucault finally
developed provides a solution to these problems. It offers a new theoretical perspective on
power since it underlines that power is foremost about guidance and conduct. Foucault’s
work on governmentality parallels very similar endeavours and recent developments in
Marxist theory and is also of great critical interest to analyse contemporary neoliberal
forms of government.
