Show Notes

In this episode. Eric Hsu and Louis Everuss examine some key ideas from Michel Foucault's text, Discipline and Punish, which provides an innovative account of how power has come to be covertly expressed in the modern world.  To illustrate one of Foucault's ideas, Louis admits that he occasionally watches silly Youtube clips at work when he thinks no one is watching him.

Our guest this week is Dr Katrina Jaworski, Senior Lecturer in Cultural Studies in the Justice & Society Academic Unit at the University of South Australia (UniSA).
