I can't believe I forgot about Foucault when I was doing the OP for this thread. He did have some good insights, but the fact that the Most Cited Scholar In The Humanities is someone who wanted to legalize pedophilia and supported the Ayatollah Khomeini is an embarrassment.

I was actually going to ask about why Foucault hadn't been mentioned? I've never read his work beyond a chapter for a module at uni so would be interested to hear what people think about him

I made the mistake of reading about Foucault & his views on the age of consent....
