Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze relating with Faucult's disciplinary power which factors influence a dancer's self-management (weight control)Total 10 ballet major undergraduate students of two respective universities in Seoul and Daijon were selected for the research and the chosen method was an interview with them. After the researchers analyzed the interview result, they found out the following several significant results. The first reason that major ballet dancers control their weight is to show their beautiful figures on the stage and to make their appearances look slender in the mirror. Dancers adapt various methods for effective weight management (diet control) such as dietary control, 1 food intake (potatoes, bananas, grapes, etc), physical force to advise or ingest (injection, taking medicines, reflexology, vomiting, etc.) Then, what is the hidden vision that makes such a practice of weight control maintain? The study presents a "mirror" as a tool of control playing a significant role, in terms that the power of discipline functions automatically in a dancer's body. In addition, another constant factor of dancers' weight management is monitoring each other's performance continuously, which is called "synopticon" Symptoms. Lastly, the fact that a question about placing a ruler could function in the continuous practice was also revealed.

본 연구는 대학발레전공생들의 자기관리에 영향을 주는 요인에는 어떠한 것들이 있는가를 푸코의 규율권력과 연계하여 분석하는 것을 목적으로 수행되었다. 이를 위해 서울시와 대전시에 소재하고 있는 4년제 대학교의 발레 전공 4학년 학생 10명을 대상으로 면담법을 실시하였으며, 얻은 자료를 수집, 분석하여 다음과 같은 결론을 도출하였다. 먼저, 발레전공무용수들이 효과적인 체중조절을 실천하기 위한 체중조절방식에는 단식, 한가지음식먹기, 물리적인 힘을 가하거나 섭취하기 등이 있었다. 그렇다면 이렇게 체중조절의 실천을 지속하게 하는 보이지 않는 시선이 무엇인지 살펴보면, 규율의 힘이 무용수들의 몸에서 자동적으로 행사하게끔 하는데 있어 중요한 역할을 하는 통제의 도구로 본 연구에서는 '거울과 체중계'을 들 수 있었다. 또한 무용수들의 체중관리의 또 다른 지속요인으로 서로간의 감시방식인 시놉티콘 현상이 존재하고 있었으며, 마지막으로 권력자의 배치에 관한 문제도 체중조절의 지속적인 실천에 작용하고 있음을 알 수 있었다.
