Summary

Through critical revision of Foucault's investigation of ethics, Faubion develops an original program of empirical inquiry into the ethical domain.

Author Biography

James D. Faubion is Professor of Anthropology and Director of Graduate Studies at Rice University. In addition to ethics, his interests include epistemic authority, kinship, social and cultural theory, aesthetics, heterodoxy and radicalism. He has published widely on research interests, including The Shadows and Lights of Waco: Millennialism Today (2001), and two edited volumes of Essential Works of Michel Foucault (1998 and 2000).
