            Abstract
            This book argues that the received view of the distinction between freedom and power must be rejected because it rests on an untenable account of the discursive cognition that endows individuals with the capacity for autonomy. Drawing on pragmat-istinferentialist resources from the philosophy of language (Wittgenstein, Sellars, Brandom), it presents a new interpretation of Foucault’s philosophy that is unified by his overlooked idea of “the archaeology of knowledge”. It explains why and how power and freedom must be entangled, but also what it means ethically to pursue and gain autonomy with respect to one’s own understanding.
             
            In diesem Buch wird argumentiert, dass die gängige Auffassung von der Unterscheidung zwischen Freiheit und Macht verworfen werden muss, weil sie auf einer unhaltbaren Darstellung der diskursiven Kognition beruht, die Individuen mit der Fähigkeit zur Autonomie ausstattet. Unter Rückgriff auf pragmatistisch-istinferentialistische Ressourcen aus der Sprachphilosophie (Wittgenstein, Sellars, Brandom) wird eine neue Interpretation von Foucaults Philosophie vorgestellt, die durch seine übersehene Idee der „Archäologie des Wissens“ geeint wird. Sie erklärt, warum und wie Macht und Freiheit verschränkt sein müssen, aber auch, was es ethisch bedeutet, Autonomie in Bezug auf das eigene Verständnis anzustreben und zu gewinnen.
