Re: Power in Education and Foucault

Leo wrote,

such a concept is lost in the vulgar Foucaultian reduction

C'mon, Leo, at least you could have afforded Foucault (the authority) 
the respect of hyphenating "vulgar" and "Foucaultian."  It is hardly 
fitting to use language in such a way as to subliminally suggest that F. 
and not the reduction itself is "vulgar."  The habit of omitting the 
hyphen harkens back to the habit of bourgeois scholars of de-hypenating 
"vulgar-Marxist" into a form more suitable in the long run for Cold War 
anti-"ideology" rhetoric (and incidentally Marxism is not an 
ideology--it's a Utopia.  To say otherwise abuses unfairly both Marx and 
Mannheim).
