Penguin It Must Be Love Khoury Caroline

"Общество необходимо защищать" - это сокрушительная критика Мишелем Фуко систем власти и контроля, присущих цивилизации. Фуко показывает, что война является основой всех властных отношений, а политика, в конечном счете, является продолжением насилия на поле боя. Он предлагает политически заряженное переосмысление истории, приводя примеры от троянского мифа до нацистской Германии, чтобы показать непрерывную "тихую войну" между сильными и бессильными • Книга на английском языке • Society Must Be Defended is Michel Foucault's devastating critique of the systems of power and control inherent in civilization. Taken from a series of lectures given by Foucault at the College de France in 1975-76, it reveals how war is the foundation of all power relations, and politics ultimately a continuation of battlefield violence

Carthage has to all intents and purposes been driven to the margins of history. A tale of battles and empire-building, of bitter rivalry and destruction - and a great civilisation whose role in shaping European culture and history has, until now, been largely ignored
