Subject(s): Online resources: Summary: This book argues that the received view of the distinction between freedom and power must be rejected because it rests on an untenable account of the discursive cognition that endows individuals with the capacity for autonomy. Drawing on pragmat-istinferentialist resources from the philosophy of language (Wittgenstein, Sellars, Brandom), it presents a new interpretation of Foucault’s philosophy that is unified by his overlooked idea of “the archaeology of knowledge”. It explains why and how power and freedom must be entangled, but also what it means ethically to pursue and gain autonomy with respect to one’s own understandingPPN: PPN: 1983983012Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-94-OAB
