Focusing on the interplay of power within colonial contexts, this work challenges and revises Foucault's theories on sovereign, disciplinary, and governmental power. It argues for a reconsideration of how criminological knowledge developed, suggesting that it served not just discipline but also colonial rule. By exploring this overlooked area, the book aims to expand the understanding of penal power and its implications in colonial settings, offering fresh insights into the dynamics of power and governance.
