Abstract

If the relationship between people and politicians seems marked by a sense of perpetual distrust, how can truth and freedom be returned to democratic politics? In Foucault’s Political Challenge: From Hegemony to Truth , Henrik Paul Bang traces an alternative model of the political through the scholarship of Michel Foucault, focusing particularly on his conception of parrhēsia. Reviewed by Andreas Aagaard Nøhr.
