For a political critique of modern anthropological truth

Abstract

Foucault was an attentive reader of Kant, who addressed many possibilities of an epistemic order in his reflections. He had readings and writings about him, which varied throughout his life; but that he did not cease to be a philosophical reference for his thought, especially in matters that touch on modernity, truth, ethics and anthropology. The present writing is supported and focuses its attention on these last two aspects throughout the academic life of the French thinker.
