Did Foucault not, in _Surveiller et punir : Naissance de la prison_, talk about expulsion? In western Europe?
There's a strange singling out of Russia in this piece as being the only ones to force the criminals and also the poor and the mental patients, as Foucault would remind us, into exile. But I suppose "Russia bad" and "we're not quoting postmodernists" is status quo for History Today.
