The Church, Authority and Foucault provides a fresh ecclesiological critique that confirms the Church’s vocation to welcome the stranger, honour new wisdom and work for change. The book breaks new ground by using Michel Foucault’s concept of space as a basis for interpreting church as a space of freedom. This leads to a re-evaluation of authority using Foucault’s concept of power-relations. Steven Ogden concludes that the Church is called to enable human transformation in ways that challenge and renew structures of authority, within and beyond the Church.
