As Foucaults work on biopower makes clear, the production and transformation of bodies is always already inextricably bound up with politics

[Mette Morgenstjerne @Morgenstjerne]

Where there is power, there is resistance [but] this resistance is never in a position of exteriority in relation to power #foucault

[Mette Morgenstjerne @Morgenstjerne]

Intet er virkeligt, før folk er enige om, at det er det #gergen #socialconstructionism

[Mette Morgenstjerne @Morgenstjerne]

There is no human nature that transcends time and place. Whatever we are, this is socially constructed and not part of some essential nature

[Mette Morgenstjerne @Morgenstjerne]

There exists a secret society with branches throughout the world, & its plot is to spread the rumor that a universal plot exists #UmbertoEco

[Mette Morgenstjerne @Morgenstjerne]

Bodies take the shape of norms that are repeated over time and with force #saraahmed #queerfeelings #fatstudies #queertheory

Let us live the present moment in such a way that a future can be possible. #ThichNhatHanh

[Mette Morgenstjerne @Morgenstjerne]

The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don't have any #alicewalker #QuoteOfTheDay #activism #helprefugees

The world is not dangerous because of those who do harm but because of those who look at it without doing anything #Einstein

[Mette Morgenstjerne @Morgenstjerne]

To know anything is to know in terms of one or more discourses #davies #harre #positioningtheory #socialconstructionism #discourse

[Mette Morgenstjerne @Morgenstjerne]

Who one is, is always an open question with a shifting answer depending upon the positions made available within the discursive practices

[Mette Morgenstjerne @Morgenstjerne]

If we cannot feel a home in our own skins, where else are we supposed to go? #fatstudies #marilynwann #feminism

[Mette Morgenstjerne @Morgenstjerne]

Any structure of idea is vulnerable at its margins [...] The mistake is to treat bodily margins in isolation from all other margins

[Mette Morgenstjerne @Morgenstjerne]

Do, Or do not. There is no try. #yoda #philosophy #motivationalquotes #inspiration

[Mette Morgenstjerne @Morgenstjerne]

Det betyder, at magten idag befinder sig og udøves på livets, artens, racens og befolkningens, massefænomenernes niveau #Foucault

[Mette Morgenstjerne @Morgenstjerne]

What I am suggesting, is that the war on "obesity," including the "epidemic" talk, is most centrally about disciplining the so-called normal

[Mette Morgenstjerne @Morgenstjerne]

I'm just here for the Savasana...

[Mette Morgenstjerne @Morgenstjerne]

Folk som ikke kendte hinanden, og aldrig ville komme til det, begyndte at føle en samhørighed med hinanden i nationalstatens territorium

[Mette Morgenstjerne @Morgenstjerne]

Kun inden for de sidste par hundrede år, har den nationale inddeling af verden vundet hævd i en sådan grad, at den ofte ses som naturlig
