Economies Of Security: Foucault And The Genealogy Of Neoliberal Reason, Marshall Scheider
Gettysburg Social Sciences Review
Michel Foucault is well-known for his theorizations of institutional power, normativity, and biopolitics.

This complex story proves the fact that black history is extremely complex and should not be painted by historians with a single brush stroke.
