POWER STRUGGLE
PANOPTICISM
“Lastly, the disciplines have to bring into play the power relations… as discreetly as possible…”
The discipline that takes places need to be subtle because if the people know they are being controlled, they might revolt.
-
“Discipline had to solve a number of problems for which the old economy of power was not sufficiently equipped.”
In order for the people at the top to keep their power over the changing society, the people need to be disciplined and regulated.
“Discipline is a physics or an anatomy of power, a technology.”

THE YELLOW WALL-PAPER
“He is very careful and loving, and hardly lets me stir without special direction.”
John controls her every move, and he has her brainwashed into thinking by doing what he does he is being “caring and loving.”
“I have a schedule prescription for each hour in a day; he takes all care from me, and so I feel basely ungrateful not to value it more.”
John has manipulated her, and is controlling her. It probably started out subtly, but now he controls every aspect of her life. She is manipulated into feeling bad because she does not appreciate her freedom being taken away from her.
-
“I meant to be such a help to John, such a real rest and comfort, and here I am a comparative burden already!”
She feels like she is in the way, when John was the one that forced her to take that room, and John is the one who took over her life.
