Here we discuss the work of Foucault.

great. But that's not what is being done. The list
should not just be a dumping ground for anything
anyone thinks might be interesting. Who has the time
to wade through that?>>> N.E.Widder@xxxxxxxxxxxx

discuss this? The article opens a lot of issues about,
for example, the relation of self and other, and the
way this relates to the continued use of force,
violence, and domination (which Foucault certainly
didn't say was non-existent, even if his studies were
more concerned with more subtle forms of disciplinary
micropowers) in our contemporary world.I could list
more, but for crying out loud are people so enervated
that they cannot think of how to link this and other
real world phenomena to Foucault???Nathan>=====
