Very cool as always. Congrats on a milestone of 100 videos!

Panopticism begins at 39:35, though this whole episode is worth watching. Thought I would timestamp that in case anyone is here for class or assigned reading.

I am writing an essay for college on this particular topic. I will be focusing on this book, alongside "The Subject and Power" and "the punitive society". This video was so helpful to get a better understanding of Foucault's approach, thank you so much!!

It seems obvious (to me, at any rate) that Foucault intended readers to see the applicability of much what he says in this book to the academic systems that many inhabit. If so, to be too explicit about this might be to bite the hand feeds.
It's interesting to watch the classic British television series The Prisoner (1967-68) with Foucault in mind.

The disciplines and the punishments are similar in construction. However, he didn't want to call these good or bad, but "positive" as "productive".
