Subject: "confused"


Hello,
I am on another list and the following "confusion" was written
about.
" I am very confused about a couple of issues, please help me!
First, I am confused that a therapist would read Foucault and decide to 
talk about dominant discourses that oppress.  Foucault also wrote about
technologies of self which open up new possibilities for living life and
being a person.  Indeed, he called it an ethic of free choice through 
which people continously produce themselves.  So, how come, we don't hear 
about this ethic of free choice?  I'm so confused."
