The Late Foucault
Michel Foucault, and others
Not becoming a slave— this was the fundamental concern.
“Care for yourself.” Through self-mastery, one builds the ground of freedom.
We do not discover who we are. We produce it.
Freedom, in the modern sense, is not given, nor revealed. It is practiced.
If one is looking for a theory of freedom that does not rely on innocence or salvation, Foucault remains unavoidable.
