From: "Ben B. Day" <bday-AT-cs.umb.edu> Date: Wed, 3 Nov 1999 00:40:01 -0500 (EST) Subject: RE: theory and critique Ed, I actually didn't go so far as to say that Foucalt is agreeing with the Frankfurt school (I haven't even read the piece in question!). I said it seemed that he was _influenced_ by the Frankfurt school, in the capacity of John's original question, namely: "that critique is itself a virtue that can and should be pursued even when one lacks a decent blueprint for a just society." So, perhaps we are not in disagreement. I think the questions you raise are more interesting ones, though--I probably wasn't going out on much of a limb by positing an influence by the Frankfurt school--and hopefully I can take this up in detail when I'm better informed. ----Ben
