If you're looking for an intellectual critique of Foucault, one of the best is Jean Baudrillard's book Forget Foucault from 1977. Baudrillard both admired the depth of Foucault's historically informed philosophical analysis but questioned its objectivity especially given Foucault had little to say about how power evolved with mass media & technology - and was in a sense always fighting the last war: > "If Foucault spoke so well of power to us — and let us not forget it, in real objective terms which cover manifold diffractions but nonetheless do not ques­tion the objective point of view one has about them, and of power which is pulverized but whose reality principle is nonetheless not questioned — only because power is dead?" > "We are no doubt witnessing, with sexual liberation, pornography, etc., the agony of sexual reason. And Foucault will only have given us the key to it when it no longer means anything" https://medium.com/@noahjchristiansen/jean-baudrillards-call-to-forget-foucault-aefbbfbadceb https://medium.com/@noahjchristiansen/jean-baudrillards-call... https://teddykw2.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/jean-baudrillard-forget-foucault.pdf https://teddykw2.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/je...
