Abstract

This dissertation develops a detailed study of the idea of critique in Foucault’s works. To this end, three key points are widely developed : ( 1) the problem of a " history of truth " ; ( 2 ) understand the importance and uniqueness of Foucault’s use of history in philosophical reflection as a way to critique the theme of origin; ( 3 ) define the reading and the use of Foucault 's modern idea of critique. Thus , we draw an interpretation of Foucault's thought that foregrounds his project of a "critical history of thought .
