Foucault's theory of structuring and self-discipline
Autor: Sixten Bigner Af KlintbergRespuesta:
(Advanced power framework) Much like Weber, Acker, Michels, and Burawoy, describes how organizations over time has become more and more structured. But the important difference between Foucault's beliefs and the aforementioned, is that he believes that it is not a certain group in society which exerts power over others, but rather every single individual who disciplines themselves. This can be likened to Burawoy's theory, where workers have simply accepted to be ruled by capitalistic structures. The difference is that Foucault believes even senior managers and CEOs are victims of structures which they have had to accept. For example, even if you are a management consultant earning a lot of money, the 80 hours per week you are working are more so benefitting actors which are higher up in the hierarchical structure than you are.
