Wszechobecność władzy i postawa krytyczna. Inspiracje myślą Michela Foucaulta dla politologii
Ubiquitousness of power and critique: Michel Foucault’s inspiration for political science

Summary/Abstract: This article recalls Michel Foucault’s political philosophy as the potential inspiration for the Polish political science. Its aim is to encourage the incorporation of Foucault’s view on power into political research in Poland. The author shows how Foucault analyzes the historical practices and technologies of power which ‘produce’ the forms of subjectivity and individual identity. In Foucault’s view, power is not distinguished by who possess it, either particular individuals, group of people, or institutions. Power manifests itself by the specific strategy of conduct. The authors shows how Foucault’s view on power can inspire the academic critique as an ethos and research position.
