If you check Amazon etc you'll find that one of the relevant lectures
series is coming out in English translation in early March.
Security, Territory, Population.
Also, have a look at the work of Stuart Elden. He discusses the "territory" aspect of that lecture series in his contribution to the special issue of borderlands e-journal which I edited, "Althusser and Us".

(there is also a new issue of that just out, btw)
best of luck with it, sorry I can't be more help on this

Hello To Those Who Are Reading This
and Thank You
I am working on a project concerned with tracing out the
development of population as the object of knowledge from 17
century to present. I think it is a central issue. Foucault
indicates in Society Must Be Defended that emergence of
population as an object of knowledge within disciplinary
discourse signifies the birth of biopolitics. He also deals
explicitly with the topic in the lectures of '78, but I only
have the lecture on Governmentality in English (I don't think
the others are translated yet). I am currently looking into the
Tanner Lectures as well, and there is some implicit discussion
of population in History of Sexuality Vol 1. Of course, I think
that the notion of population also looms in the background of
Foucault's earlier work. I was hoping that people reading this
email would be kind enough to give some suggestions for further
research and any other input they would like to impart. I am
looking for all kinds of sources within Foucault's body of work
as well as in the work of others. Sources on Malthus would be
welcome as well.
Thank you,
