Since the MeToo movement, there is an increasing criticism of Foucault’s persona and works. However, in order to avoid recognizing their mistake, some authors say that Foucault’s defense of sexual violence was unknown before. This article shows this is not backed by evidence. Data was collected via interviews with 19 subjects with diverse profiles, employing the communicative methodology. The results shed light on the fact that some professors who have included Foucault’s works in their classes hid Foucault’s position in favor of sexual violence to their students. Interviewees state that there are several reasons why they think those professors hid this fact: a) the most critical thinker; b) the transgressor; c) a relativist intellectual; d) “a shield to hide behind”; and e) the idea that the intellectual must be separated from the person. This study indicates that in transmitting those images and hiding or even justifying Foucault instead of critically analyzing the implication of his works and his defense of sexual violence, perpetuating its justification, such professors act as his “hooligans”. 000112409 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 000112409 592__ $$a0.53$$b2022 000112409 593__ $$aHistory$$c2022$$dQ1 000112409 593__ $$aPhilosophy$$c2022$$dQ1 000112409 593__ $$aSocial Sciences (miscellaneous)$$c2022$$dQ2 000112409 593__ $$aEconomics and Econometrics$$c2022$$dQ2 000112409 594__ $$a3.8$$b2022 000112409 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000112409 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0003-0937-4861$$aElboj, Carmen$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000112409 700__ $$aSerradell, Olga 000112409 700__ $$aDíez-Palomar, Javier 000112409 700__ $$aAiello, Emilia 000112409 700__ $$aRacionero, Sandra 000112409 700__ $$aVidu, Ana 000112409 700__ $$aRoca, Esther 000112409 700__ $$aJoanpere, Mar 000112409 700__ $$aLópez de Aguileta, Ane 000112409 7102_ $$14009$$2775$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
