Two hundred and fifty years ago, a man condemned of attempting to assassinate the King of France was drawn and quartered in a grisly spectacle that suggested an unmediated duel between the violence of the criminal and the violence of the state. This groundbreaking audiobook by Michel Foucault, the most influential philosopher since Sartre, compels us to reevaluate our assumptions about all the ensuing reforms in the penal institutions of the West. For as Foucault examines innovations that range from the abolition of torture to the institution of forced labor and the appearance of the modern penitentiary, he suggests that punishment has shifted its focus from the prisoner's body to his soul - and that our very concern with rehabilitation encourages and refines criminal activity. Lucidly reasoned and deftly marshaling a vast body of research, Discipline and Punish is a genuinely revolutionary audiobook, whose implications extend beyond the prison to the minute power relations of our society.

Does a great job challenging fundamental assumptions, many of which we don’t know we possess.

Get a print or kindle version too, it’s much easier to read over a paragraph 5 times than to skip back to the corresponding time stamp.

Must read

I'm not a scholar in the various legal systems of Europe, so I wonder how the French experience contrasts with other traditions. I can say that his take on the role of prison and punishment are quite interesting. I was also struck by the brutality of punishment in prior eras. Certainly, it would be necessarily that are a number of quite graphic description of some quite brutal punishments. They are not for the faint of heart. I wonder if we don't still have the public spectacle in things like the OJ Trial, although we were denied our pound of flesh. I wonder how these ideas will influence my own thoughts long term. I believe it will take some reflection to get down to that. Overall, a good read.

I had to rethink so much

I've had this book for nearly twenty years on my shelf. Before a couple weeks ago I never quite found myself in the "right" mood for a French post-structural look at power, prisons, and punishment. It is interesting reading this and thinking about how influential Foucault was in the modern criticisms of the penal system, and various areas of control (schools, hospitals, psychiatric facilities, the military and prisons).

I didn't realize until I read the prologue that the "Disciple" part of the title was originally Surveiller (Watch) et punir (Punish). It made sense back in the day to use discipline, but given the giant NSA observation issues, I kinda hope they consider changing the title at some point back to some variant of watch. That was a surprise part of the book that isn't communicated by discipline, and a part that is VERY relevant to the world we exist in.

Anyway, I could probably come up with some high-falutin reason to like or not like this book, but honestly, I kinda liked it, just not enough to put forward HUGE efforts of defense or evangelism. There were some of the obvious issues with a lot of postmodern historical books (big ideas, radical ways to look at things), but the damn flag is pretty high and pretty big and the pole is thin and isn't buried very deep. But God love Foucault and his big poles.

So, I still want to read his sexy books, his book on madness, and his book on the clinic, so I guess that makes this a four-star book. I don't want to read all of his stuff tomorrow, but I want to read more... but later, when nobody's watching.

French post-structural look at looking and prisons

I've been hoping Discipline and Punish would appear as an audiobook and here it is with an excellent reader. Well done!

Now, I wonder if and when any Adorno will ever appear?

More titles like this one please!

Foucault offers a stunning account, though it really doesn't hit you until part two of the download (or it didn't hit me).

An indispensable read.
