Security, Territory, Population: Lectures at the College De France, 1977 - 78 (Michel Foucault: Lectures at the College de France)

This book derives from Foucault's lectures at the College de France between January and April 1978, which can be seen as a radical turning point in his thought. Focusing on 'bio-power', he studies the foundations of this new technology of power over population and explores the technologies of security and the history of 'governmentality'.

Taking as his starting point the notion of "bio-power," introduced both in his 1976 course Society Must be Defended and in the first volume of his History of Sexuality, Foucault sets out to study the emergence of this new technology of power over population."--Jacket Foreword Introduction 11 January 1978 18 January 1978 25 January 1978 1 February 1978 8 February 1978 15 February 1978 22 February 1978 1 March 1978 8 March 1978 15 March 1978 22 March 1978 29 March 1978 5 April 1978 Course Summary Course Context Index of Notions Names index Subject index.
