Synopsis

"…power produces knowledge….; that power and knowledge directly imply one another; that there is no power relation without the correlative constitution of a field of knowledge, nor any power knowledge that does not presuppose and constitute at the same time power relation…"(Foucault, M., 1995:27)."For if ‘doing history is about how you can read and make sense of past and the present’, then it seems important to me to use discourses that have ‘readings’ and the construction of meanings as major concerns. "(Jenkins, K. 2006:4).
