<div><br>
</div>
<div>Quite a few papers taking a Foucauldian approach in Games and Culture so worth checking there for relevant titles (I know there's a couple under review currently too).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Cheers</div>

<div><font color="#000000">Greetings DiGRA UK.</font></div>
<div><font color="#000000"></font> </div>
<div><font color="#000000">I'm a MA graduate currently in the South West area (Chippenham, not far from Bristol) hoping to start up in games industry research. My studies (other than Games Design, which I did at Newport) have primarily been Foucauldian and
Laclaudian discursive analysis and critical media/cultural studies surrounding it (such as Hall's encoding/decoding model) and ways these models and connected research may apply to games and the industry locally and internationally.</font></div>
<div><font color="#000000"></font> </div>
<div><font color="#000000">I was curious if any past or current research that approaches games through Foucault/Laclau discourse that people might recommend? I don't recall much if any mention of games during my studies and have yet to find any such work, but
given how prominent it seems in media studies I would be surprised if a games researcher somewhere has not approached it before i do.</font></div>
<div><font color="#000000"></font> </div>
<div><font color="#000000">Many thanks everyone, and best of luck with your research.</font></div>
