QQC-Kelly Chamorro

Q:"'It is in discourse ' he says in The History of Sexuality,'that power and knowledge are joined together" and in addition this quote: "[...]discourse is not simply that which translates struggles or systems of domination, but is the thing for which and by which there is struggle, discourse is the power which is to be seized."

Q: Foucault mentions throughout his argument on discourse (rhetoric) the concept of power and how discourse is connected to it by systems put in place by laws, society, tradition, etc. How do his views on the relationship between power/discourse and society differ/share similarities with the views on society that Aristotle and Burke have?
