As we move through our modern world, the phenomenon we call knowledge is always involved. Whether we talk of know-how, technology, innovation, politics or education, it is the concept of knowledge that ties them all together. But despite its ubiquity as a modern trope we seldom encounter knowledge in itself. How is it produced, where does it reside, and who owns it? Is knowledge always beneficial, will we know all there is to know at some point in the future, and does knowledge really equal power? This book pursues an original approach to this concept that seems to define so many aspects of modern societies. It explores the topic from a distinctly sociological perspective, and traces the many ways that knowledge is woven into the very fabric of modern society.

Uncover the Hidden Structures of Knowledge and Power Michel Foucault was more than just a philosopher; he was an archaeologist and a genealogist of the structures that shape our human experience. The eBook "Foucault: Knowledge and Power" is your essential guide to navigating this thinker's monumental work, from his initial analyses of the Great Confinement and the birth of the clinic to his most famous investigations into Panopticism and the Microphysics of Power. We invite you to uncover the complex webs of power and knowledge which, according to Foucault, are inseparable and circulate in all the micro-relations of daily life. This volume is designed to be both didactic and rigorous, structured in three main parts that follow Foucault's methodological evolution: the Archaeology of knowledge (which denaturalizes truth) and the Genealogy of power (which traces struggles and contingencies). You will understand how knowledge is always a historical product, and how power is not merely repressive, but, above all, productive, shaping docile bodies and subjectivities. By analyzing institutions such as the prison, the school, and the hospital, you will see how discipline became the central technology of modern society. The journey deepens into Foucault’s later phase with an exploration of Bio-Power and Governmentality – the modern mechanisms that manage life and the population on a large scale. You will discover how sexuality became a strategic axis for control and how contemporary politics transformed into an administration of life. This section is crucial for understanding global health crises and digital surveillance in the 21st century. Foucaultian thought is not pessimistic, but a powerful call to resistance. The eBook presents the final phase of his work, focused on Ethics and the Care of the Self (Epimeleia Heautou). You will learn that freedom is not a given status, but an active practice and an artisanal labor upon one's own soul and body, an aesthetics of existence that opposes imposed normalization. Understanding Foucault is starting a process of denaturalizing the world. Get your copy of "Foucault: Knowledge and Power" now and use the lenses of Foucaultian critique for a perceptive diagnosis of the present. Transform your worldview, recognizing the forces that govern you and the opportunities for localized resistance. The struggle between knowledge and power continues in the 21st century, and Foucault's tools are your best defense. Kadakrshna

Interest in relations between knowledge, power, and space has a long tradition in a range of disciplines, but it was reinvigorated in the last two decades through critical engagement with Foucault and Gramsci. This volume focuses on relations between knowledge and power. It shows why space is fundamental in any exercise of power and explains which roles various types of knowledge play in the acquisition, support, and legitimization of power. Topics include the control and manipulation of knowledge through centers of power in historical contexts, the geopolitics of knowledge about world politics, media control in twentieth century, cartography in modern war, the power of words, the changing face of Islamic authority, and the role of Millennialism in the United States. This book offers insights from disciplines such as geography, anthropology, scientific theology, Assyriology, and communication science.
