Analysis file: Foucault and Galtung on structural violence
With the French thinker Michel Foucault’s conception of power and domination, a reinterpretation of Galtung’s famous concepts of structural violence and positive and negative peace is called for. When Foucault forces us to consider power as productive and when the aim of social justice is problematized, how do we then address the issue of structural violence as an object of transformation?
