From: "Brian Milstein" <madmenonly-AT-hotmail.com> Subject: re:Foucault & Colonial Contexts Date: Sat, 16 Oct 1999 15:11:38 EDT There is an essay by Stuart Hall entitled "The West and The Rest: Power and Ideology in the Age of Exploration" (at least, I think that's the title) in a book co-edited by Hall and David Held, "Modernity: An Introduction to Modern Societies." Also, you might want to track down a short essay by Foucault entitled "Of Other Spaces," regarding "utopias" and what he called "heterotopias," which I believe appeared in "Diacritics" in 1986. In general, I would think that his views on colonization might be best inferred from his essays and interviews dealing explicitly with the relation between "space" and "power."
