EMPIRE RETREAT

Essay

Keywords:

empire, power, the technology of power’, Foucault, coverage

Abstract

The essay shows that the empire is not only about territories seized, but also about the reliable power established and exercised. This involves whole networks, first of all, those of transport and trade, finance and information. Certain languages and ‘technologies of power’ (Foucault) became widely used. Notably, it primarily concerned the West. Eventually, these technologies spread around the world and ensured the reliable exercise of power, making any empire and ter- ritory conquest obsolete and unnecessary.
