sounds like Governmentality esssay which can be found either in The Foucault
effect : studies in governmentality, with two lectures by and an interview
with Michel Foucault / edited by Graham Burchell, Colin Gordon, and Peter
Miller.
Published Chicago : University of Chicago Press, 1991. or in Power / Michel
Foucault ; edited by James D. Faubion ; translated by Robert Hurley and
others.
Published London : Penguin, 2002.
if you cant find the exact thing there, there are many similar passages
anyway.

I wrote down the following quote a while back from an article or book by
Foucault but I cannot remember the source.
Could anyone help? I did not it as being a 1979 reference but have no idea
if that refers to the original or translated
version. I may have even got it from a book that refers to the Foucault
quote.
"The things which the government is concerned about are men, but men in
their relations, their links, their
imbrications with those other things which are wealth, resources, means of
subsistence, the territory with its specific
qualities, climate, irrigation, fertility, etc; men in their relation to
that other kind of things which are customs,
habits, ways of doing and think, etc; lastly, men in their relation to that
other kind of things again which are
accidents and misfortunes such as famine, epidemic, death, etc."(Foucault
1979, p.11)
