In an age when everyone aspires to teach critical thinking skills in the classroom, what does it mean to be a subversive law teacher? Who or what might a subversive law teacher seek to subvert - the authority of the law, the university, their own authority as teachers, perhaps?

This book proposes an original interpretation of the French philosopher Michel Foucault's late work on rights and human rights and relates this interpretation to current developments in contemporary political theory.

Few thinkers can have had a more diverse or a more contested impact on theorizing law than Michel Foucault. This title reflects the wide range of Foucault's work in four sections: Epistemologies; Political philosophy; Embodiment, difference, sexuality and the law; and, the subject of rights and ethics.
