Expression, Surveillancce & Regulation



More from that website. This is an article by somebody named Ed Richardson, called Post-Structuralism & Modern Magic:

    “Our thoughts cannot be physically restrained so are under surveillance from doctors, social workers, teachers, the police and so on. In his colossal work The history of Sexuality Foucault looks at the changing attitudes about sexuality. He points out how we think of Victorians repressing sex, even avoiding any talk about it whereas in these more enlightened times sex is no taboo and we are free to talk about it as we will. However, Foucault interprets this talk as a sign that we are under surveillance. In this society we are COMPELLED to talk about sex as civilisation DEMANDS it. Power has thus created a vast discourse on sexuality giving thorough access to our thoughts on the subject, making us amenable to regulation.”

A very interesting quote…
