I've had a really tough time getting started with this paper. The difficulty and length of Foucault and Berger's articles have given me some trouble. It's obvious that all three articles relate to the power. Berger talks about the power of images, Foucault talks about the division of power through the Panopticon, and West looks at power and the burdens that accompany it. That being said, I don't have a firm grasp on this assignment, but right now I feel like the best way to bring these works back to a common theme is to look at them as all explaining how to optimize power.

  1. If its the length of the Foucault piece that is intimidating you, try and look at just a few pages or even a paragraph that you do understand and then go from there. Don't feel like you have to use ALL of Foucault. Hope that helps.
