Re: foucault and education

Clare:

An interesting text (that you may or may not have consulted) is FOUCAULT AND=
 EDUCATION: DISCIPLINES AND KNOWLEDGE (Routledge, 1990), edited by Stephen=
 J. Ball.  It has chapters on educational research, private versus public=
 schooling, and "the genealogy of the urban schoolteacher," among other=
 topics.  Another source might be Simon During'sessay, "Post-Foucauldian=
 Criticism," found in GENEALOGY & LITERATURE (Minnesota, 1995), edited by=
 Lee Quinby.  The essay is also a part of During's FOUCAULT & LITERATURE=
 (Routledge, 1992).  Hope you find some of this useful.=20
