Bienes ocultos: Verdad y libertad en Michel Foucault

In this article I address the criticism that Charles Taylor performed on Foucault’s genealogical project. The main criticism revolves around Foucault’s insistence on keeping inarticulated the goods that guide his thinking. The critical historical analysis that the French philosopher has given us, seek to answer the question about how we have become who we are. However, these are only plausible if we recognize as a background some notion of good or goods not realized, or repressed that we are now better able to understand.
