re: #153 researchok
What the hell are you talking about?
Said has been criticized for sa very long tinme by people very well credentialed.
I’m familiar with a lot of critique of Said. Some elements, like his debate with Bernard Lewis, I happen to listen to both sides.
Said, however, has not been “discredited” in the sense that his ideas have been thrown out or are no longer used because their flaws are so great that nothing can be derived from…as have many aspects of anthropological thought. He has been criticized.
And seriously, I’m done. You don’t know a push piece from a researched article, and I’m not wasting any more time with this “you can’t provide a name, so I must be right” crap.
