Against Max Weber's assertion that modernity "is characterized by rationalization and intellectualization and, above all, by the 'disenchantment of the world'" ("Science as a Vocation," 1918), Ross suggests that the world has always been disenchanted and enchanted. He thus substitutes the entanglement of disenchantment with enchantment for Michel Foucault's vision of power: diffused, embodied in discourse, neither an agency nor a structure, but a pervasive regime of truth.
