Michel Foucault - invisible systems of power
Sat Feb 07 2026
Michel Foucault was one of the most influential — and controversial — thinkers of the 20th century.
In this episode of The Vancrux Podcast, we explore Foucault’s core ideas on power, knowledge, surveillance, discipline, and sexuality, and how modern institutions quietly shape the way we think, behave, and even understand ourselves.
From prisons and madness to biopower and self-control, this episode breaks down Foucault’s philosophy in a clear, practical way — showing why his ideas still matter in today’s world of surveillance, identity, and social norms.
If you want to understand how society really controls us — this episode is essential listening.
