One example of an author “more Foucauldian than Foucault” would be Bernard Harcourt (“Radical Thought from Marx, Nietzsche and Freud through Foucault, to the Present”), who argues that the idea of a small limited government hemmed in vis-à-vis the market is itself a spurious construct, “‘false,’ but not because its opposite is ‘true’” (ibid., p. 15). In this reading, Foucault himself was a cog in the neoliberal regime of truth, promulgating the notion that “government” was in fact being limited by neoliberal interventions, when in fact it was expanding in both size and power.
