Hi folks !

I am just writing a homework about postmodernism and if it means that we
live in a time where enlightenment is obsolete.
What does Foucault say about reason in his books ? I have only read that
discipline and observation are exectuted reason. Then I read in "madness
and civilisation" that we can find out what is reason if we look how
unreasonabless is practised.

I am a newbie to Foucault and to this list, it would be great if you could
help me.

Have a great time,
Ragnar
