Quotes

"Dialogue is mutual search for a new reality, not debate to win with stronger arguments. In a dialogue propositions are pointers toward a common new reality; not against each other to win a verbal battle, but complementing each other in an effort to accommodate legitimate goals of all parties, inspired by theories and values, and constructive-creative-concrete enough to become a causa finalis". Galtuung


"I use the concept of affect as away of talking about a margin of manouverability, the 'where we might be able to go' and 'what we might be able to do' in every present situation. I guess 'affect' is a word I use for 'hope': Massumi


"A discourse is a system of words, actions, rules, beliefs, and institutions that share common values. Particular discourses sustain particular worldviews. We might even think of a discourse as a worldview in action. Discourses tend to be invisible--taken for granted as part of the fabric of reality."Fairclough


Emergence is “the principle that entities exhibit properties which are meaningful only when attributed to the whole, not to its parts.” Checkland


"What the designer cares about is whether the user perceives that some action is possible (or in the case of perceived non-affordances, not possible)." Norman

Books:
Anderson N: Discursive Analytical Stratagies

Ch1

Starts saying heis is difficult to present
reposition changes structuralist > Post
Didnt wan to form a chool
a formation analyst also used discourse analysis


concepts are created through distinctions, Foucaults concepts are polyvalent more than 2 sides p1 c.f Laclau Luhmann bivalent
and often come into being through countless negative delinations and very few if any positive definitions."

it is very difficult not to reduce his valences
unsystematic  as he did not wan t to create a school, (didnt want to be criticised?)
pigionholed

work is not  theory but a number of analytical stratagies and examinations of perriodisation, delimination of discourse, monuments anf they are always defined in relation to a basic research question.

subjectless phenomenology

(hopefully!2 hints writing as my vocation)


Structut=ralism: text and subtext of power
Post structuralism - looser text


Foucault - Just appearence?
Transformation Strtcturalist
not synchronous structure (Levi Strauss)Sausseree)
