THE PRISON DOCTOR: My time inside Britain’s most notorious jails. THE HONEST, UNBELIEVABLE TRUE STORY AND A SUNDAY TIMES BEST SELLING AUTOBIOGRAPHY

Jerry B. wanted to misguidedly make the world into Best of All Possible Worlds for the majority of people...

It [torture] assured the articulation of the written on the oral, the secret on the public, the procedure of investigation on the operation of the confession; it made it possible to reproduce the crime on the visible body of the criminal; in the same horror, the crime had to be manifested and annulled. It also made the body of the condemned man the place where the vengeance of the sovereign was applied, the anchoring point for a manifestation of power, an opportunity of affirming the dissymmetry of forces." [3] :55 The structures Foucault chooses to use as his starting positions help highlight his conclusions. In particular, his choice as a perfect prison of the penal institution at Mettray helps personify the carceral system. Within it is included the Prison, the School, the Church, and the work-house (industry) – all of which feature heavily in his argument. The prisons at Neufchatel and Mettray were perfect examples for Foucault, because they, even in their original state, began to show the traits for which Foucault was searching. Moreover, they showed the body of knowledge being developed about the prisoners, the creation of the 'delinquent' class, and the disciplinary careers emerging.As the book progresses, you see this initiative becoming big thanks to the ever efficient and ambitious Carol, extended to every public prison in Canada. S druge strane, drago mi je što ga čitam s malo razvijenijim kritičkim mišljenjem nego onomad sa dvaes godina :P Jer Fuko piše tako super retorički zavodljivo a usto potkovano činjenicama da mic po mic čitalac krene da prihvata i one klimavije delove njegovih teorija o zatvoru kao sistemu za (jelte) nadziranje i kažnjavanje koji u suštini odražava ustrojstvo čitave države i povratno ga određuje. Sve je to izloženo tako ubedljivo i, ponoviću, sa sjajnom retorikom i inteligentnom strašću (koja mnohohogo nedostaje raznim Fukoovim sledbenicima) da u nekom trenutku prosto može da izmakne kako Fuko "državi kao represivnom aparatu" ne suprotstavlja ništa tj. kad čovek bolje pogleda ispada da život van represivnog sistema ne samo da nije moguć nego da nije ni zamisliv sistem koji nije represivan. Ili kad na kvarnjaka izjednačava zatvore i školstvo (zapravo ne, to je ok), dakle zatvore i bolnice - jasno je da to čini jer ga zanima odnos prema *duševnim* bolesnicima (sledeće na spisku: Istorija ludila u doba klasicizma) ali zaboga, reći ćete vi, nije to sasvim isto! a Fuko će odgovoriti nenenene jeste, slušaj pažljivo, i onda će navaliti s brdom dokaza i primera i sve koji se savršeno uklapaju u njegovu teoriju i čik se onda vi držite nečeg drugog. The individuality that discipline constructs (for the bodies it controls) has four characteristics, namely it makes individuality which is:

Nežinau, ar kaltas kalėdinis laikotarpis, bet iš šios knygos gavau tiek pozityvo. Mano pacientai taip pat nėra lengvi.Gydytoja Amanda įkvėpė nepamiršti, kad pacientas ne vien tik diagnozių sąrašas. Tai jautrus, pažeidžiamas žmogus, nors jo išorė sako ir ką kita.

I bet a lot of people'd love this. Plus, anyone who doubts its relevance completely (and not just periodically) should read about the NYPD's new "Sky Watch" tower program. yerleri, hastaneler, okullar, hapishaneler toprağın değil insanın korkuları üzerine temelleniyor. Foucault'ya göre, insan doğası üzerine böyle bir bilgi birikimine sahip ve insan üzerinde emelleri olan iktidarın tüm kurumları, tek tek insanlar yerine, insanlardan oluşmuş ''işler bir toplum'' olarak tesis etmek üzere kurulu. Evet, belki görünürde faydalı görünebilir tüm bu kurumlardan oluşan koca sistem, fakat iyi edebiyat okuru, birçok şeyin görüdüğü gibi olmadığını bilir :) For intro to historical materialism, see "What is Politics?" video series , in particular these episodes: This book will open your eyes to the fact that while there are some people in jail who are probably irredeemable, that is not the case for every inmate. No matter what crime a person has committed or why they did so, these men are still people with valid opinions and who deserve a chance to enrich their lives through reading.

Note: “primitive accumulation”, despite being a critical concept, is a bit of a misnomer. It comes from Adam Smith’s assumption of an idyllic “previous accumulation” (so, "primitive" simply means "previous", not "barbaric" or "vulgar") where future capitalists first accumulated their capital through hard work. Surveiller et Punir: Naissance de la Prison = Discipline and Punish: The Birth of the Prison, Michel Foucault Historically, the process by which the bourgeoisie became in the course of the eighteenth century the politically dominant class was masked by the establishment of an explicit, coded and formally egalitarian juridical framework, made possible by the organization of a parliamentary, representative regime. But the development and generalization of disciplinary mechanisms constituted the other, dark side of these processes. The general juridical form that guaranteed a system of rights that were egalitarian in principle was supported by these tiny, everyday, physical mechanisms, by all those systems of micro-power that are essentially non-egalitarian and asymmetrical that we call the disciplines. [3] :222As the chapters go by, you'll see many new members joining the book club and old members leaving it. And we get a glimpse into the prisoners past and present now and then and what their takeaway is from reading every book. We also get a glimpse into their minds through their daily journal entries. We see them developing more empathy, we see them talk about their fears and anxieties through the characters in the books they read. We witness the ultimate power of books, the ability to free an imprisoned mind.
