The intellectual radicalism of the 1960s spawned a new set of questions about the role and nature of 鈥渢he political鈥� in social life, questions that have since revolutionized nearly every field of thought, from literary criticism through anthropology to the philosophy of science. Michel Foucault in particular made us aware that whatever our functionally defined 鈥渞oles鈥� in society, we are constantly negotiating questions of authority and the control of the definitions of reality. Such insights have led theorists to challenge concepts that have long formed the very underpinnings of their disciplines. By exploring some of the most debated of these concepts—鈥渃ulture,鈥� 鈥減ower,鈥� and 鈥渉istory鈥�—this reader offers an enriching perspective on social theory in the contemporary moment.


Organized around these three concepts, Culture/ Power/History brings together both classic and new essays that address Foucault’s 鈥渘ew economy of power relations鈥� in a number of different, contestatory directions. Representing innovative work from various disciplines and sites of study, from taxidermy to Madonna, the book seeks to affirm the creative possibilities available in a time marked by growing uncertainty about established disciplinary forms of knowledge and by the increasing fluidity of the boundaries between them. The book is introduced by a major synthetic essay by the editors, which calls attention to the most significant issues enlivening theoretical discourse today. The editors seek not only to encourage scholars to reflect anew on the course of social theory, but also to orient newcomers to this area of inquiry.
