Reading Response 5- Foucault/Debord
1) In Docile Bodies, Foucault does speak about how literal bodies are perceived but also he
uses them as a metaphor for another issue. What is happening to our bodies as well as
what is the greater issue at hand to Foucault?
2) Foucault like most postmodern scholars is obsessed with understanding power dynamics.
He is a bit unique in that he places a lot of emphasis on architecture and other physical
structures as a means of oppression and ultimately sway (persuasion) over others. Why
does he believe the literal structures we build are persuasive in nature?
3) What is spectacle to Debord? How is spectacle connected to our understanding of signs and
symbols?
