Document Summary
To be freely subject to the power of education is to have authorship. Making it formally equally before the law obscures forces in civil society. Discourse: told to accept/ debate certain things. Genealogy (history of the present, how to understand a norm in the present) He cannot be analytical because the truth is produced (out of analytical frames is discourse) All you can do is trace the process to understand what is going on. ** not going back to the beginnings of sexuality > just interested in present and modern norms, so look at history leading up to the present. Vs. marx: if you understand structure you can make history move. Marx: history moves in a deterministic direction. Because human nature is constrained by powers of civil society, and we know that the powers will disappear. True human emancipation: absence of power on us. Foucault: marx"s last step is impossible, can never be free from power.
