Question

Four sentences that are a part of paragraph are given below; the sentences may or may not be in the right order; create the sequence that forms a coherent paragraph.
1. It is regimes of truth that make certain relationships speakable – relationships, like subjectivities, are constituted through discursive formations, which sustain regimes of truth.
2. Relationships are nothing without the communication that brings them into being; interpersonal communication is connected to knowledge shared by interlocutors, and scholars should attend to relational histories in their analyses.
3. A Foucauldian approach to relationships goes beyond these conceptions of discourse and history to macro level regimes of truth as constituting relationships.
4. Reconsidering micropractices within relationships that are constituted within and simultaneously contributors to regimes of truth acknowledges the central position of power/knowledge in the constitution of what has come to be considered true and real.

• A. 2314
• B. 1234
• C. 4312
• D. 4321

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

To determine the correct sequence of sentences forming a coherent paragraph, let's analyze the connections between the given sentences:

Sentence 2: Relationships are nothing without the communication that brings them into being; interpersonal communication is connected to knowledge shared by interlocutors, and scholars should attend to relational histories in their analyses.

Sentence 3: A Foucauldian approach to relationships goes beyond these conceptions of discourse and history to macro level regimes of truth as constituting relationships.

Sentence 1: It is regimes of truth that make certain relationships speakable – relationships, like subjectivities, are constituted through discursive formations, which sustain regimes of truth.

Sentence 4: Reconsidering micropractices within relationships that are constituted within and simultaneously contributors to regimes of truth acknowledges the central position of power/knowledge in the constitution of what has come to be considered true and real.

Let's analyze the logical flow:

1. Sentence 2 introduces the basic idea that relationships are closely tied to communication and knowledge, setting the stage for further exploration of this concept.
2. Sentence 3 builds on this by introducing the Foucauldian perspective, extending the discourse to include regimes of truth.
3. Sentence 1 elaborates on the role of regimes of truth in constituting relationships, supporting the idea introduced in Sentence 3.
4. Sentence 4 wraps up the paragraph by acknowledging the interplay and mutual contribution of relationships and regimes of truth, with a focus on power/knowledge.

Thus, the correct sequence is 2314.
