THE ESSENTIAL MICHEL FOUCAULT: POWER/KNOWLEDGE AND ITS IMPACT UPON CONTEMPORARY ORGANIZATIONAL DISCOURSE 2016 (original) (raw)

This paper explores Michel Foucault's contributions to the power/knowledge debate and its implications for contemporary organizational discourse. Emphasizing Foucault's inquiry into the construction of knowledge and truth through discourses, it outlines how exclusionary practices shape the acceptance of certain truths over others. The analysis suggests that Foucault's insights on power and knowledge can significantly influence organizational analysis by fostering a critical understanding of the dynamics at play within institutions.
