Michel Foucault
Paul-Michel Foucault is a French philosopher, historian of ideas, writer, political activist and literary critic. Foucault's theories deal primarily with the relationship between power and knowledge, and how they are used as a form of social control across social institutions. Although generally considered structuralist and postmodern, Foucault rejected these labels. Her thinking has influenced academics, especially those working in media studies, anthropology, psychology, sociology, criticism, cultural studies, literary theory, feminism, Marxism, and critical theory. Born in Poitiers, France, into an upper middle class family, Foucault was educated at Lycée Henri-IV, École normale supérieure, where he developed a love of philosophy and was influenced by the tutors Jean Hyppolite and Louis. Althusser, and at the University of Paris where he obtained degrees in philosophy and psychology.
