    Michel Foucault and Judith Butler: troubling Butler's appropriation of Foucault's work

    Full text link
    One of the main influences on Judith Butler‘s thinking has been the work of Michel Foucault. Although this relationship is often commented on, it is rarely discussed in any detail. My thesis makes a contribution in this area. It presents an analysis of Foucault‘s work with the aim of countering Butler‘s representation of his thinking. In the first part of the thesis, I show how Butler initially interprets Foucault‘s project through Nietzschean genealogy, psychoanalysis and Derridean discourse, and how she later develops this interpretation in line with the progress of her own project. In the main part of the thesis, I present an analysis of Foucault‘s thinking in the period from The Archaeology of Knowledge (1969) to The History of Sexuality volume 1 (1976). This analysis focuses on the aspect of his work which has most influenced Butler‘s thinking: namely the notion of a relationship between knowledge, discourse and power. The other issues in his work which Butler addresses—genealogy, the subject, the body, abnormality, and sexuality—are discussed within this framework. I show how, in the early 1970s, Foucault develops the notion of power-knowledge, and sets out a relationship between power-knowledge and discourse which is overlooked by Butler. I argue that Butler interprets Foucaultian power through the notions of repression and social norms, and ignores the concepts of technology and strategy which form a key part of Foucault‘s thinking. I show how, from The Archaeology of Knowledge on, Foucault develops a socio-historical ontology and a genealogy of the subject, both of which are at variance with Butler‘s interpretation of his thinking

    International audienceGoalThis interview aims at clarifying Monique David-Ménard and Judith Butler's respective use of concepts related to sexuality and language which stem from psychoanalysis, philosophy and gender studies.MethodologyThis interview has been carried out by four scholars (two doctoral candidates and two post-doctoral fellows) who have read David-Ménard and Butler's respective work assiduously for a long time. The interview presents a theoretical discussion but also refers to various analytic cures.ResultsWe have been able to understand the way each author refers to the following issues: the link between signifiers of desire and sexuality; the concept of drive; the role of performativity in the analytic cure; the relation between social norms and symptoms; the relation between transference and the question of address; and the relation between normativity and the clinical practice.DiscussionIt appears that David-Ménard and Butler have many intellectual references in common (Freud, Lacan, Foucault), but what remains different is the way each of them appropriates those theories so as to build her own thought on the sexual, sexuality, language and work around the norms.ConclusionThe ongoing transdisciplinary dialogue developed by Butler and David-Ménard since 2007 is useful and relevant for both theoretical research and a clinical practice, which seeks to take in account the social changes related to sexuality.ObjectifCet article vise à établir une mise au point de l’usage que font Monique David-Ménard et Judith Butler de concepts liés à la sexualité et au langage provenant de la psychanalyse, de la philosophie et des études de genre.MéthodeIl s’agit d’un entretien préparé par des chercheuses fréquentant les textes des deux auteures depuis plusieurs années. Il comprend une discussion théorique ainsi que des références à des cures psychanalytiques.RésultatsNous avons pu saisir la manière dont chaque auteure se réfère aux thématiques suivantes : l’articulation des signifiants du désir à la sexualité ; la notion de pulsion ; le rôle de la performativité dans l’analyse ; le lien existant entre les normes sociales et les symptômes ; le rapport entre le transfert et la question de l’adresse ; et la relation entre la normativité et la clinique.DiscussionIl apparaît que des références communes aux deux auteures (Freud, Lacan, Foucault) n’effacent pas les différences dans la manière dont chacune s’approprie ces théories pour construire sa propre réflexion sur le sexuel, la sexualité, le langage ou le travail des normes.ConclusionLe dialogue transdisciplinaire entretenu par les deux auteures depuis 2007 est pertinent autant pour la recherche que pour une clinique qui souhaite prendre en compte les changements sociaux relatifs à la sexualité
