or is the real difficulty in confining ourselves to (modernist?) understandings of "wrong"? ie, how can we "know" what is "wrong" if our perceptions of right'n'wrong are only ever the accumulation of our subjective understandings.

or: do we have to interrogate the way in which the fifty million discourses running through our brains operate to construct and maintain identity hierarchies through the reification of natural or pre-inscriptive and embodied practices? and, specifically, does the division of activities into the categories of 'right' and 'wrong' only serve to create a class of deviant practices against which the normal practices of the centre are constructed and legitimated?

and who stole my cigarettes?
