Productive (positive), it is something that is practised not possessed. =
It requires resistance or it isn't an exercise of power. I guess when =
there is no capacity for resistance then you have asymmetrical power =
relations, but this isn't really a power relation any more but one of =
domination. That's why Foucault says power can never be merely =
repressive. Kendall and Wickham give a convincing outline in 'Using =
Foucault's Methods', but I find their conclusion that we mustn't oppose =
or support power silly. The Cambridge Companion, p. 105 - 107 is worth =
reading. =20
