At the end of the governmentality lecture, Foucault note's (at least)
three conditions of possibility for the birth of governmentality:
Christian pastoral, police, and diplomatico-military techniques.
It is possible to reconstruct the first two from essays, lectures, etc.,
presented elsewhere - so, my question is this: "does foucault talk about
the diplomatico-military model anywhere else?"
Is what he is talking about, for example, similar to what he has said
previously in <<Society Must be Defended>>: re: the state gaining a
monopoly on war, and thus eradicates day-to-day warfare or "private war"
from the social body; or, as Foucault himself put it, 'war was both
centralised in practise and confined to the frontier' (Foucault, 2003
#239: 49).
