ABSTRACT

I have attempted to demonstrate above that Foucault’s work does not represent a detached suspension of judgement, but that

he is constantly tempting us with his references to new possibilities of thinking

and acting, of giving new impetus to the undefined work of freedom, of the

need to grasp the points where change is possible and desirable, and of deter-

mining the precise form these changes should take (Bernstein, 1992: 301).
