Subject is an important issue in Western Philosophy. Traditional western subjectivity philosophy endowed intellectualistic subject with the superiority. However, Postmodernism philosophy criticized and deconstructed the traditional intellectualistic subject. Michel Foucault, in his intellectual archaeology and genealogy of power and morality, criticized and deconstructed the traditional subject. This thesis, starting from "other" to which Foucault pays great attention, explains Foucault's thought of the deconstruction of traditional subject by stressing on "other" systematically, and then takes up the way that Foucault looked for to overcome the dilemma of subjectivity, i.e. to construct a truly free future subject which is the main core of the aesthetics of existence in his later life. This thesis emphasizes on features of the freedom and the aesthetic existence of the future subject, on the relationship that the future subject to the "other", on the constructing mode of the future subject, thus introspects the theory of the future subject.
