Anarcho-syndicalism - Foucault & Chomsky

This debate is one of the most interesting I´ve seen in recent times, is about Anarcho-syndicalism. Foucault was a great analytical philosopher, instead of learning from history as such, he was able to indicate the spots in which the structural forces that configure the political power acts and settles. And the places in which such power is concealed plausibly lies behind the curtains of neutrality, thus neutrality is a diplomatic tool or method used to garnish many autocratical institutions, such as schools, hospitals, volunteers organizations, religions etc.

Those structural forces have the capability to give us freedoms (optionally) and facilitations to learn and initiate ourselves in new knowledges that generate certain skills. Those skills are supposed to serve for the good of the individual and therefore for the society in general as well. But those institutional powers also have the ability to deprive us of other kinds of knowledge. Why? Well that's a topic for research, although any kind of research emerges from speculations. That means that these speculations do not appear without reason, or more specifically, without a cause. No matter if the deductional calculation is wrong or not. I personally use to say; everyone thinks properly but some more than others.

The purely correctness is a paradox, cause how can you correct something that is correct? Perfection on the other hand is what we call; an ideal state with an ideal result. Perfection and correctness seems to be related to each other, since you can only reach perfection through correction, or at least that is how is supose to be. Chomsky is more positive and idealistic in his utterance while Foucault is more pesimistic but realistic about the problems we must confront.

Two thinkers that complete each other on their demands. enjoy!
