<br/><br/>PART ONE:  TORTURE --  The body of the condemned --  The spectacle of the scaffold -- PART TWO:  PUNISHMENT --  Generalized punishment --  The gentle way in punishment -- PART THREE:  DISCIPLINE --  Docile bodies --  The means of correct training --  Panopticism -- PART FOUR:  PRISON --  Complete and austere institutions --  Illegalities and delinquency --  The carceral. 
<br/><br/> In this brilliant work, the most influential philosopher since Sartre suggests that such vaunted reforms as the abolition of torture and the emergence of the modern penitentiary have merely shifted the focus of punishment from the prisoner's body to his soul.
