{"product_id":"9781482839180","title":"Knowledge-Power\/Resistance: Beyond Bacon, Ambedkar And Foucault","description":"Schools, Colleges, Universities, and Educational institutes, that is, \"knowledge factories,\" apart from producing self-governing citizens, and skilled docile workers, function as minute social observatories that indirectly monitor their families. Michel Foucault delineates power in terms of Pastoral (church and salvation), Sovereign (visible and verifiable), Disciplinary (invisible and unverifiable), Bio-power (reproduction and individualization), Psychiatric (normal and abnormal), and Governmentality (sovereignty, discipline, and government). By applying Foucault's theory, the research investigated the relevance of the Francis Bacon's popular dictum, \"Knowledge is Power,\" and Dr. B. R. Ambedkar's final words, \"Educate, Agitate, Organize.\" The insights of the research may benefit the seekers and disseminators of knowledge in understanding the subtle operative modes of the government-capitalist nexus and in advocating appropriate resistance against the pathologies of power. 9781482839180 1482839180 417 Art NOT_MATURE http:\/\/books.google.com\/books\/content?id=cqIoBQAAQBAJ\u0026amp;printsec=frontcover\u0026amp;img=1\u0026amp;zoom=5\u0026amp;source=gbs_api en\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eVinod Kumar Rawat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003ePartridgeindia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eOct 22, 2014\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e414 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003ePaperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e1482839180\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9781482839180\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Partridgeindia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50135328031025,"sku":"9781482839180","price":25.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/files\/9781482839180.jpg?v=1728717024","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/products\/9781482839180","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
