Rules, philosophy: rules are restrictions of a domain of possibilities for subjects, communities or functionaries, or generally for acting individuals or groups. Rules may be implicit or explicit, and may be implemented by ordinance or by jointly developing equally authorized participants, e.g. in a discourse. In another sense, rules can be understood as actual regularities that can be discovered by observation. These rules can be discovered not only in action, but also in the nature of objects such as linguistic structures. See also norms, values, rule following, private language, language rules, discourse, ethics, morality, cognitivism, intuitionism, society, practice._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.

Michel Foucault on Rules - Dictionary of Arguments
II 104ff Rules/Discourse/Foucault: complex bundles of relationships function as rules. The information system draws the rule system that had to be applied so that a particular object is transformed, a certain new utterance emerges, a certain concept is worked out without, however, remaining in the same discourse. >Words, >Concepts, >Utterance, >Discourse/Foucault. Formation: a discursive formation does not play the role of a figure as the time lasts. It is not a timeless form, but a correspondence scheme between several temporal series. The information system is not the final stage of the discourse. The analysis remains on this side of the manifest level. One remains in the dimension of discourse._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
