Subjugated Knowledge

Subjugated Knowledge (also called Marginal Knowledges)[1] are knowledges that have been disqualified from consideration due to the fact that they have been deemed as inadequate or insufficiently elaborated.[2]

Notes

Indigenous spiritualities are examples of subjugated knowledge. See for example Lawlor [3]

Foucault elaborates on methods by which knowledge is subjugated, and also methods of criticism that can excavate these knowledges. For an excellent introduction to Foucault, see "A Foucault Primer: Discourse, power, and the subject."[4]
