This lecture discusses key ideas from the work of the 20th century philosopher and historian, Michel Foucault, "The Subject and Power"

It focuses specifically on the section "What Constitutes The Specificity Of Power Relations?" in which Foucault notes that power relations, while they may include violence or consent, are really something different, involving "action upon action", or "acting upon the possibilities of action of other people".
