Foucault's "Politics of Health" and "What Is Enlightenment?"

We delve into Foucault's work on medicalization in the 18th
century while also discussing his relation to Enlightenment
thought. We furthermore take a few jabs at Jordan Peterson and
Stephen Hicks in the process.  Our discussion of healthcare
in the US and the UK then leads us towards applying Foucault's
analysis to the coronavirus pandemic and the evolution of
surveillance technologies. Will Agamben be vindicated in the
future? Also: Marx contra Foucault.
