Governmentalizing Gramsci: Topologies of power and passive revolution in Cambodia’s garment production network
本文结合葛兰西的霸权与整体国家概念以及福柯的治理术与配置概念，分析柬埔寨服装生产网络中政府、资本与劳工之间的多重权力关系，探讨“体面工作”话语对劳工能动性的影响。
This article takes a fresh look at the multiple power relations between state, capital and labor in global production networks. Moving beyond debates about public vs. private governance, it brings together Antonio Gramsci’s concepts of hegemony and the integral state with Michel Foucault’s concepts of governmentality and the “dipositive” in order to analyze the power topologies that permeate global production networks. Using the Cambodian garment production network as example, we scrutinize the discourse of “decent work” and “ethical manufacturing,” exemplified by the Better Factories Cambodia program, and discuss the implications for labor agency, power and political contestation. The article concludes with reflections on “governmentalizing Gramsci,” thinking power topologically and the value of a cultural political economy in the analysis of global production networks.
