Foucault and Family Relations: Governing from a Distance in Australia

by Malcolm Voyce

Foucault and Family Relations analyzes notions of property in rural Australia during the colonial period and examines how these concepts maintained family stability. Using Foucault's ideas on family, sexuality, race, space, and economics, Voyce outlines how inheritance and divorce law were established so that the state could rule from a distance.
