Foucault: a critical history of truth

The article deals with the possibility of a critical history of truth in the thought of Michel Foucault, emphasizing its separation from the traditional relation between subject and knowledge of truth in favor of the articulation between historical practices (discursive practices, social practices and practices of the self) and production of truth. It also emphasizes in which aspects his investigation is inserted in the critical project inaugurated by Kant and to what extent, paradoxically, it separates from it.
