Michel Foucoult’s work has profondly affected the teaching of such diverse disciplines as literacy criticism, criminology, and gender studies. Arguing that definitions of abnormal behavior are culturally constructed, Foucloudt explores the unfair divisions between those who meet and those who deviate from social norms.
Foucoult’s deeply visual sense or scenes such as ritual public exocutions, lends itself well to Moshe Susser’s dramatic illustrations.
