I believe what Foucault says. Power is not a material thing but words, manners, atributions which flows over the bodies. Nobody has power over other individual always and no one institution has the power always.

determination to succes

Answer 5

Memory is power, imagine how powerful u may be if you memorized the whole dictionary!!

Answer 6

If we are to live in a "Society" then we must fulfill our role in society or what eventually happens to society?

Believing that freedom is is somehow your own selfish right to live how you like is naive at best..

If society never existed when you were born were would all your freedoms be now?

Society is set up to help the underdog achieve a chance at a fulfilling life without hassle and torment by the stronger beings (well to at least limit it.)

Therefore true power is "Freedom" but it is responsable freedom within the rules of society were as human beings we should in theory prosper.
