Week 4 Lecture

Power and the subject

  • Rather than focusing on how power operates (which is to focus on the centre of power which reinforces power), Foucault suggests a focus on the resistance to the relations of power. {Lecturer - student. State/police - protestor. Media - viewer. Customer - server. Adult - child. Prisoner - prison guard. Landlord - tenant. Man - women.}
  • Relations of power (subject to anthers power/control) which is attached to an identity position. 
  • Power is not a thing, it is a process. 
  • Power is exercised only over free subjects, and only insofar as they are free...slavery is not a power relationship when a man is in chains.
