Foreword to the Societies of Clear-Sightedness - 2010.


80

A continuation of Deleuze’s Postscript on the Societies of Control, this paper attempts to show the emergence of a new type of societies, based on the preventive control of time. Irreducible to the techniques of police surveillance, these societies of clear-sightedness rely upon an imaginary of transparency that must be contested as such, for there is no society without its own obscure corners.
