Abstract
Since Foucaull 's death in 19K4, his interpreters have generally located his importance in his genealogical critiques and in his philosophy ofpower. On the one hand, Foucault performs genealogical critiques of the practices surrounding modern punishment and sex, and on the other hand, his genealogies alert us to the dangers of new forms ofpower. However, the exact nature of the relationship between his genealogical critiques and his views on power remains a matter of dispute, for Foucault neither expressly states a program of critique, nor clearly articulates an account of power. The purpose of this paper, then, is to establish the relationship between the critical force of Foucault 's genealogy and his views power.
