Michel Foucault and Judith Butler: troubling Butler's appropriation of Foucault's work
No full textOne of the main influences on Judith Butler‘s thinking has been the work of Michel Foucault. Although this relationship is often commented on, it is rarely discussed in any detail. My thesis makes a contribution in this area. It presents an analysis of Foucault‘s work with the aim of countering Butler‘s representation of his thinking. In the first part of the thesis, I show how Butler initially interprets Foucault‘s project through Nietzschean genealogy, psychoanalysis and Derridean discourse, and how she later develops this interpretation in line with the progress of her own project. In the main part of the thesis, I present an analysis of Foucault‘s thinking in the period from The Archaeology of Knowledge (1969) to The History of Sexuality volume 1 (1976). This analysis focuses on the aspect of his work which has most influenced Butler‘s thinking: namely the notion of a relationship between knowledge, discourse and power. The other issues in his work which Butler addresses—genealogy, the subject, the body, abnormality, and sexuality—are discussed within this framework. I show how, in the early 1970s, Foucault develops the notion of power-knowledge, and sets out a relationship between power-knowledge and discourse which is overlooked by Butler. I argue that Butler interprets Foucaultian power through the notions of repression and social norms, and ignores the concepts of technology and strategy which form a key part of Foucault‘s thinking. I show how, from The Archaeology of Knowledge on, Foucault develops a socio-historical ontology and a genealogy of the subject, both of which are at variance with Butler‘s interpretation of his thinking

Getting real: young women and girls, working futures, VET and VET in schools
No full textIntroduction
“Getting Real? Young Women and Girls, Working Futures, VET and VET in Schools” is the report of research commissioned in 2004 by Security4Women (S4W), one of four National Women’s Secretariats funded through the Australian Government Office for Women (OFW).
In 2003, S4W surveyed over 3000 women around Australia, to ascertain a representative view of women’s priorities concerning their lifelong economic well-being, despite the many differences inherent in the category ‘women’. Women, irrespective of age, education backgrounds and socio-economic status, were remarkably consistent in their choices, identifying the following as five areas of highest priority: work arrangements to help balance family and other responsibilities; affordable education and training for all ages; equal representation in management and leadership; equality of male and female wages and salaries; and education about financial and economic issues (Doughney J. et al/S4W, 2004).
After consideration of existing and contemporary research activities in these five areas, and the inter-related nature of work-related or vocational education and training (VET) with the above identified issues, it was decided that in 2004/5 S4W would invest in research into affordable work-related education and training for women of all ages.
The aim of this research is to enable S4W to propose policy development based on the outcomes of this research to enhance greater economic equity for women and to define measures to advocate and lobby for policy and legislative amendments on behalf of the women’s sector. Women in Adult and Vocational Education Inc [WAVE] was commissioned to undertake research for S4W.
The interest in girls and young women in the Vocational Education and Training [VET] sector stems from a broader commitment to examine the position of women in Australia within Lifelong Learning, a global policy priority adopted and promoted by the OECD and European Union
