Foucault showed that power does not sit in a palace issuing orders — it runs through clinics, schools, prisons and the categories we use to describe ourselves. Wrapped around a glossy mug for the eleven minutes a day you are honest. Equally suited to strong coffee, weak tea and evening whisky.

• Print that stays put: The design will not fade out after a fortnight of washing up.
• Essential theory reading: Instantly recognized by anyone in sociology, gender studies or critical theory.

Where there is power, there is resistance. Both are everywhere.
