Governmentality by Michel Focault - Poststructuralist Theory of Power - UPSC PSIR and UGC NET JRF

Dear Students, Welcome to Saar Concepts, This video is from our classroom lectures on Power. The lecture discusses the concept of Governmentality as developed by the poststructuralist thinker Michel Focault. Governmentality is a unique concept of power which combines the forces of Sovereign Power, Biopower, Disciplinary Power and Biopolitics. Michel Focault synthesises his complete philosophy and conceptions of power in the idea of governmentality, therefore it is extremely important that students get complete conceptual clarity on this topic of power which is studied under the broader topic of Power within political theory. #saarconcepts #psiroptional #ugcnet #politicalscience #politicaltheory Power, Theories of Power, Concept of Power in Political Theory, Poststructuralist Theory of Power, Michel Focault on Power, Capillary Power, Disciplinary Power, Biopower, Capillary Power, Governmentality, Liberal Theory of Power, First Dimension of Power, Second Dimension of Power, Third Dimension of Power, Steven Lukes on Power, Elitist Theory of Power, Pluralist Theory of Power, Feminist Theory of Power
