Asch, Seth K.2009-08-262009-08-2620092009-08-26http://hdl.handle.net/1828/1610This thesis is an attempt to articulate a ‘Relational’ ontology, and in turn relate this type of cultural worldview to Foucault’s philosophy and methodology. The major thesis being offered here is that Foucault can be read as a ‘Relational’ ontologist. The hope is that when he is understood from this standpoint, the unique methodology he operates with, one which allows us to view our social worlds as cultural, historical, and political products, will be seen as a coherent, authoritative, and legitimate challenge to the normalized way we envision our existence.enAvailable to the World Wide Webrelational ontologyMichel FoucaultUVic Subject Index::Humanities and Social Sciences::Political ScienceThesis
