Re: [Foucault-L] Biopower and Colonialism

Hi,

I am just studying on my ph degree dissertation about the relationship or integration between biopower, biopolitics, and architectural space from viewpoint of recent biotechnological issues. Therfore, both Legg's and Fetter's essays would be very interesting for me if i can read them. First of all, I shall request his essay from Peter. And then, can anyone send me Legg's ?

thanks
