Compare Political Genealogy After Foucault by Michael Clifford, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Combining the most powerful elements of Foucault's theories, Clifford produces a methodology for cultural and political critique called "political genealogy" to explore the genesis of modern political identity. At the core of American identity, Clifford argues, is the ideal of the "Savage Noble," a hybrid that married the Native American "savage" with the "civilized" European male. This complex icon animates modern politics, and has shaped our understandings of rights, freedom, and power. | Political Genealogy After Foucault by Michael Clifford, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
