Ann Laura Stoler is Professor of Anthropology, History, and Women’s Studies at the University of Michigan
"Ann Stoler has given us an ingenious and compelling reading of the apparent absence of race and colonialism in Foucault's account of modern power. She shows how colonial history remains embedded in the very conceptual categories that order modern bourgeois society in the West. Written with verve, erudition, and a sense of engagement." --Partha Chatterjee, Centre for Studies in Social Science, Calcutta "This brilliant book is neither celebration nor subversion of Foucault, but rather a critical exposition and a bold extension of some of his insights." --Gender and History
