Description

The philosophical works of Michel Foucault have profoundly influenced many disciplines, but his influence on theology has seldom been considered. Archives and the Event of God unravels the effects that Foucault’s Archaeology of Knowledge and Discipline and Punish have had on the study of theology and religion.
