According to Michel Foucault, this is an example of "violence against the body".

Michel Foucault is a standout amongst the most persuasive sociological scholars of the last 50 years. One of his key commitments to criminology is his emphasis on how the idea of wrongdoing control has moved from utilizing the risk of brutality and the dread of being physically rebuffed to control through observation - dread of apparently being accomplishing something wrong. Foucault's thought that the body and sexuality are social builds as opposed to characteristic marvels has made a noteworthy commitment to the women's activist evaluate of essentialism.

Antony Casey · Answer 2

It is an example of violence against body. The term of "violence" is actually little used by Foucault himself. Foucault did not give any explanation or did not put any forward theory for that because he was not that type of philosopher. He does not seek the psychological causes of aggression, but he inquires the sociological roots of civil violence.
