Product Description
Foucault, Health and Medicine shows how key researchers in the sociology of health and illness are now engaging with Michel Foucault’s thoughts. The book’s twelve chapters explore: Foucault’s concept of discourse; the critique of the medicalization thesis; analysis of the body and the self; Foucault’s concepts for feminist research on embodiment and gendered subjectivities; the application of Foucault’s notion of governmentality to the analysis of health policy, health promotion and the consumption of health. Offering a state-of-the-art overview of Foucaludian scholarship in the area of health and medicine, this volume will provide a key reference for those working in the areas of medical sociology, health policy, health promotion and feminist studies.
