Re: MacKinnon and Foucault

I have difficulty accepting the assertion that power that is 
everywhere is power that is nowhere.  I disagree with the view that F's 
notion of power is too diffuse to be politically useful, a view which 
seems to be at the heart of some feminist critiques of Foucault.  It 
seems to me that by diffusing power into a network of relations, Foucault 
actually creates a more revolutionary concept of power, as something that 
can be utilized by individuals in a multiplicity of capacities.  However, 
given F's views on subjectivity, is this a tenable argument?

New to the list,
