Re: what is bio-power?

In regards to Foucault and Governance, and Bio-Power, check out
"Governmentality" in *The Foucault Effect: Studies in Governmentality*
edited by Graham Burchell, Colin Gordon et.al.
In it Foucault describes the relation that occurs from Machiavelli to
more modern forms of treatises on government, this relationship is of
a series including security, population, and government. Bio-power
is implicit here, and later is refined in *The History of Sexuality*
