This book brings together a range of anthropological writings that are inspired by the French philosopher Michel Foucault and examine Foucault's contribution to current theories of modernity. This book: treats modernity as an ethnographic object by focusing on its concrete manifestations; tackles issues of broad interest: from colonialism and globalization to war, genetics, and AIDS; and, draws on work from North and South America, Europe, Africa, and South and Southeast Asia. Contributors include James Ferguson, Akhil Gupta, Aihwa Ong, Paul Rabinow, and Rayna Rapp.

Review: "This is one of the best collections of its kind. Written by leading anthropologists, this volume takes up Foucault's challenge to modern knowledge and significantly expands the discourse on our current cultural and epistemological predicament." Bill Maurer, University of California, Irvine "Ranging across colonialism, globalization, technoscience, biosociality, and necropolitics, each gem in this superbly integrated collection demonstrates how anthropologists inspired by Foucault's ideas about modern government can transcend his Eurocentrism while building on his original provocations." John Gledhill, University of Manchester
