The article is a response to Kaldybekov and his colleague's, 2024 paper about Foucault's theory on power. I argue that it is difficult to understand Foucault's theory of power without looking into his intellectual life and experiences, especially his war experiences. The objective of my study is to show that there is a connection between Foucault's ideas about power and his own lived life, and that he always has been critical of totalitarian theories although he seems influenced by Marxist theories, early in his career. In the paper I show how he deals with this dilemma by incorporating some of Nietzsche's ideas into his thinking. To illustrate the connection between Foucault's lived life and his theories about power, I take a particular point of departure in Foucault's lecture series on psychiatric power in the 1970s and an interview conducted by the Italian journalist Trombadori.
本文是对卡尔迪贝科夫及其同事2024年关于福柯权力理论的论文的回应。我认为，如果不深入研究福柯的学术生涯和经历，尤其是他的战争经历，就很难理解他的权力理论。我研究的目的是表明，福柯关于权力的观点与他自己的生活之间存在联系，并且尽管他在职业生涯早期似乎受到马克思主义理论的影响，但他一直对极权主义理论持批判态度。在本文中，我展示了他是如何通过将尼采的一些思想融入自己的思考来应对这一困境的。为了说明福柯的生活与他关于权力的理论之间的联系，我特别从他20世纪70年代关于精神科权力的系列讲座以及意大利记者特龙巴多里进行的一次采访出发。
