COMM Communication& Social Behavior May 25, 2005 Language and Discourse, Continued

Discourse, Power, Knowledge: Introducing Michel Foucault Different take on the relationship between power and knowledge Population, discipline, and governmentality Example: Panopticism Power and Resistance Power as productive, rather than repressive

Discourse and Ideology: Ideology as false consciousness From a Social Constructionist perspective:  Ideology as Power/Knowledge (Foucault)  Ideology as Lived Experience (Althusser)  Ideology as Dillematic (Billig)

Discourse and Reality: Two Helpful Concepts from Burke:  The Negative  Selection and Deflection: “Men seek for vocabularies that will be faithful reflections of reality. To this end, they must develop vocabularies that are selections of reality. And any selection of reality must, in certain circumstances, function as a deflection of reality.” -- Kenneth Burke, A Grammar of Motives

Discourse, Reality, and Hotel Rwanda

Discourse and Reality: Relativist and Realist Positions Realism(s):  Naive Realism (Modernism)  Critical Realism (Critical Modernism) Relativism(s):  Epistemological Relativism (Skeptical Postmodernism)  Ontological Relativism (Appreciative Postmodernism)

Discourse and Reality: Cloud’s “Fighting Words” How would you characterize Cloud’s argument? What view of ideology does she take? How does she view the relationship between discourse and reality? If you were to adopt a different perspective on ideology and the relationship between discourse and reality, how might you make sense of the strike at Staley? Which take to agree with more? What are the strengths and weaknesses of approaching the Staley strike from these perspectives?
