Foucault and Global Civil Society
New Orleans, February 17-20, 2010.
Issues regarding global civil society can be found at the center of many debates regarding various transformations taking place in contemporary world politics. Increasingly, scholars working from critical theoretical approaches have been interrogating the meaning of global civil society and its relationship to our political present. However, few scholars have analyzed global civil society by drawing on the social and political thought of the French philosopher Michel Foucault, who in International Relations is mostly used for analysing the strategies of security. The recent publication of Foucault’s 1979 lectures, The Birth of Biopolitics, gives new impetus to a Foucauldian analysis of global civil society. In these lectures, Foucault locates the ‘invention’ of civil society as a crucial moment in the development of a liberal technology or art of government.
This panel seeks to build on Foucault’s analysis of civil society by interrogating contemporary discourses and practices of civil society (whether national, regional, or global) in order to better understand, and also critique or formulate alternatives to, specific forms of government that operate in the world today. Following Foucault, the panel will not take the common distinction between civil society and the state as a universal given, but commence from a starting-point that takes both as what Foucault calls "transactional realities"--that is, as "vectors in the common interplay of relations of power and that which continuously escapes their grasp."
