Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Foucault argued that the shift from a corporal to a carceral system of discipline is evidenced by the replacement of public forms of punishment (such as public executions) with private and apparently more civilised forms of regulation, such as imprisonment. Foucault also observed a growing knowledge of delinquency, but this is not specifically tied to the shift in forms of punishment. The idea of a civilising society is a broader concept that Foucault did not necessarily link directly to the development of the carceral system.
