I don't have the collection-title, but the essay is called "Refiguring
values, power, knowledge, or, Foucault's disavowal of Marx".  From one of
those Rethinking Marxism internat'l conferences, edited by Stephen
Cullenburg and some one or two others.  Then dimly lit recesses of my
memory suggest A.J. sees Foucault's failure to link power with value (in
the marxian, if not Spivakian sense) marks a denial of Marx-- i.e., of F's
previous and Ucs. acceptance of Marx.   Hope this helps.

Best,
