In this episode, I present the first half of Foucault's seminal Discipline & Punish. In this half he sketches a firm distinction between a model of juridical punishment that mobilizes torture as a deterrent to criminality and a model predicated on surveillance as a deterrent to criminality.

    Edit: ignore this point haha! I noticed you made the point later in the video One acute point that you may have missed is that one of the reasons the points of power chose to move away from crude executions was because the criminal tended to become a martyr among the public after the execution, because they say him/her suffer so immensely. It was like watching the crucifixion.

    The idea at ~37:00 defines for me the core of Foucaults approach in that book. People observing the exertion of sovereign power, forming their own opinion on it and intervening at will had to be stopped, so the exertion of power needed to escape the public eye. Through discipline, not only hiding the origin and place of sovereignty became easier, but also the possibility to negotiate power and its normative framework democratically became increasingly difficult.

    Hello my friend! Right at the beginning you say that F himself says this is not to be related a-historically, right? Which publication are you reading from mate? I have a different translators note too i think. :) i would like to cite him basically saying this is about France, you know? thank you! x
