Contemporary Theory, Poststructuralism & Governmentality

Special Interest Group, Australian Association for Research in Education

An international network open to researchers from all disciplines who are applying the work of radical European theorists to education.

Theorists used by researchers in this network include Foucault, Deleuze, Agamben, Bourdieu, Derrida, Habermas, Heidegger, Agamben, Butler and others. This network also includes those who are applying Foucault's notion of governmentality both directly and via the work of others such as Hunter, Dean, Rose, Gordon.
Anybody engaged in educational research which centres around this kind of theory is most welcome to join this network.
Members can link up with each other, form specific interest groups, post to the main forum or small group forums, post blog entries and notices of events. The main forum can be used to post publications, resources and calls for papers as well as for discussion of any other topics of general interest not covered in the small groups.

Anyone have any good references about how "governmentality" impacts us everyday--I think of this as a theory of almost a sub-government, or invisible government--the REAL one, actually. Thoughts? Thanks! Michele
