Abstract
Returning to Stephen Kotkin’s Magnetic Mountain: Stalinism as a Civilization almost two decades after its publication allows us to take stock, from a slight temporal distance, of the reception in our discipline of the work of Michel Foucault. Magnetic Mountain is the one of the books that came out of a project that Kotkin and a number of other students began under Foucault’s direction at the University of California, Berkeley in 1983 (p. xviii). Foucault’s work in California occurred during a particular turn in his political thinking, a moment when he experimented with liberal alternatives to the left theories of the first decades of his career. Kotkin’s book is not simply an application of a general Foucauldianism, but rather of a specific California Foucault.
