Abstract

The theme of freedom is central to the later Foucault. Freedom presupposes the assumption that context directs but does not determine the individual. If we are free from context, at least partially independent of its conditioning, then it means that what happens within us is fundamental. It is no coincidence, then, that the French philosopher's latest reflection focused on the individual's autonomous relationship with himself. This is a significant shift for who had been the philosopher of anonymous systems and networks of power. This article will attempt to focus on the internal articulation and implications of this shift, in the context of a problematisation of the relationship between interiority and politics
