Bonet, Sebastian2009-08-282009-08-2820092009-08-28http://hdl.handle.net/1828/1666This thesis argues, through two immanent critiques, that Michel Foucault’s work is constrained by the use of a ‘flat’ ontology, which limits the effectiveness of his politics. This thesis also argues, through transcendental critique, that Foucault’s analysis of power relations appears to presuppose Roy Bhaskar’s ‘depth’ ontology, which entails that Foucault’s individual and subjective form of politics must be complemented with a social dimension.enAvailable to the World Wide WebBhaskarFoucaultOntologyPoliticsUVic Subject Index::Humanities and Social SciencesThesis
