How conceive of "truth" in the world today? How does the "power"? What are, how to set and how they operate on "veridiction schemes?
French thinker These fragments may stimulate thinking about one of the central topics of philosophy.

"The important thing, I think, is that truth is not out of power or without power (...). The truth is of this world are produced here thanks to multiple taxation. Here has regulated power effects. Every society has its regime of truth, its "general policy of truth": that is, the types of speeches that she accepts and makes function as true, the mechanisms and instances which distinguish the true statements or false, how punish each other, techniques and procedures that are measured to obtain of truth, the status of those involved to say what works and true. " P. 187
"There is a battle" for truth "or at least" around the truth, "let it be understood once again that truth is not to say" the set of real things to be discovered or to accept, "but "the set of rules by which discriminate the true from the false and true are linked to political effects of power" may also mean that this is not a fight "for" the truth but about status truth and the political-economic role plays. Think the problems political intellectuals not in terms of "science / ideology but in terms of" truth / power. " P. 188
"For" truth "get a set of production procedures regulated by the law, the distribution, the circulation and the functioning of the statements.
The "truth" is linked circularly power systems that produce and maintain, and the effects of power which induces and accompanying. "Regime" of truth.
This regime is not merely ideological or superstructural; has been a condition of training and development of capitalism. " P. 189

"(...) the governing principle of a frugal government had been formed from what might be called or I appointed him rudely connection with the reason of state, and calculating it, a certain scheme true that found its expression and its theoretical formulation in political economy. The emergence of political economy and the problem of minimal government were, and tried to point out, two things were linked. (...) The principle of that connection which I tried to point out the connection between practice of government and regime of truth would be as follows: [...] there was, therefore, lake in governance in the government practice of the sixteenth and XVII and in the Middle Ages, had been one of the privileged objects of intervention, government regulation, which had been the privileged object of surveillance and government interventions. And the place itself, and not economic theory, which from S. XVIII, would become a field and a training facility for real (...). There really is not, of course, the head of the economists, but the market. "P. 45/46
"You see, in all this, whether the market, the confessional, the psychiatric institution, prison," in all these cases, it is approached from different perspectives a story of truth, or rather , address a history of truth that would be united, from the origin, a history of law. (...) History of the truth is not understood, of course, in the sense of a reconstruction of the genesis of truth through the errors eliminated or rectified, a story of truth that would not be either the formation of a series of rationalities successive historical or established by the correction or elimination of ideologies. This true story would not be the description of real systems and autonomous island. This would be the genealogy of veridiccionales schemes, namely, the analysis of the formation of a right to truth from a situation of law, where the relationship right and truth would find its privileged expression in speech, the speech in which the right formula and what can be true or false, the regime veridiction, in fact, is not a given law of truth, but the set of rules that allow, with respect to a speech given establish what are the statements that it may be characterized as true or false. "P. 53
"(...) the problem is to highlight the conditions that are due to pronounce on the madness, but that's the same on crime, and that's the same about sex-the speeches can be true or false according the rules relating to medicine, psychology or a confession, no matter, or psychoanalysis. "P. 54/55
