Abstract: In lieu of an abstract, here is the first paragraph of the editorial: In an interview published under the title “Friendship as a Way Of Life” Michel Foucault asks: This notion of mode of life seems important to me. Will it require the introduction of a diversification different from the ones due to social class, differences in profession and culture, a diversification that would also be a form of relationship and would be a “way of life”? A way of life can be shared among individuals of different age, status, and social activity. It can yield intense relations not resembling those that are institutionalised. It seems to me that a way of life can yield a culture and an ethics. (Ethics. Subjectivity and Truth 1994: 127-8)
