I am very interested in finding an english translation of Maurizio Lazzarato's essay, Biopolitique/Bioeconomie. Does one exist? If not, has anyone commented on the essay in English?
Additionally, I wonder whether anyone can recommend essays by Foucault published in english addressing his views on liberalism beyond his discussions in the Birth of Biopolitics and Governmentality?
Thanks,
Majia Nadesan

Hello Frank,
You can find that part in Foucault's biography in Sara Mills' "Michel
Foucault" published by Routledge, 2003. Foucault was in Sweden according to
her in 1954.

Hi everyone,
The Foucault Studies pieces are of course very important but for further
readings and an introduction to the current literature on biopower and
biopolitics, we should look into the MULTITUDE past issues, esp. the first
issue (with Lazzarato, Alliez, Ranciere, Latour, Hardt/Negri, etc.)
(http://multitudes.samizdat.net/-Multitudes-1-mars-2000-.html) and
Lazzarato's contribution to issue MULTITUDE 22 (on the two Foucault courses
and liberalism)
(http://multitudes.samizdat.net/Biopolitique-Bioeconomie.html) as well as
LABYRINTHE N. 22, issue III (2005)
(http://www.revuelabyrinthe.org/sommaire1010.html). All these would be quite
useful for analyses of liberalism, neoliberalism, and post-colonial world
orders.

Another reckless but therefore also interessting discusssion of biopower
and colonialism that uses Foucault + Agamben can be found in Achille Mbembe
(eg. his idea of necropolitics

Hello Frank. Unfortunately I cannot provide a
reference for the particulars of which you speak,
but I can point you in the direction of an edited text
which might speak to your interests called 'Rewritting
the history of madness'. I recall reading somewhere,
maybe there, that when Foucault submitted his thesis
for review by his examiners he said, after slamming it
down on the desk in front of them, 'Im not changing a
word'...

Hello to everyone,
Does anybody of you know about publications and/or papers bringing together
Mieke Bals idea of "travelling concepts" and Foucaults understanding of
discourse?
I am working on discourse (Foucault) and narratology (Bal), and I was
wondering whether Foucaults discourse could be understood as a concept in
the term of Mieke Bal, or whether Mieke Bals idea of concept should be read
as something between discourse (maybe even discourse formation) as a larger
frame within concepts travel and 'enoncee' (I apologize for not knowing the
english term) as the singular utterance of a concept.
Thank you very much!
Best regards,
Hania

Hi everyone,
I'm just wondering how many Japanese speakers and/or residents in Japan
are on the list.
I always feel it would be nice to have a Japanese listserv on Foucault
because no such one is available.
Though Japan is a country all works of Foucault except _Herculine Barbin_
and _Le d?sordre des familles_ are translated and much read, there hasn't
been an active network of scholars on the net. Thus, setting up a
listserv, I hope, will help to stimulate discussion and exchange of ideas
among those who have an interest in contemporary Foucault (proper and/or
related) studies in Japan.
I'm making this propostion not because of any intention to "nationalize"
Foucault studies (frankly, I don't appreciate jargon-fillied, self-indulgent
writings or talks by most of Japanese "post-modern" scholars), but because
of the fact that Japanese as a two-byte language is sometimes a barrier to
communicate among Japanese speakers in one-byte language based listservs.
If you find this idea of networking attractive, feel free to contact me.
Best,

Hi Tetz
I am currently in Japan but I am Australian and speak very little
Japanese, chotto chotto. I am based on Toyama-ken at the moment.
I do know the translator of Althusser and Virilio into Japanese,
Yoshi Ichida, who is Professor of French at Kobe University, But I
presume you already know him. He can tell you just how little
Japanese I can speak! There is a Japanese Foucault scholar at the
University of Tokyo whom my friend Warren Montag recommended I
contact, but so far I have not made contact.

Hi Tetz, Hi David,
I am a Japanese speaking subscriber of Foucault-L list! However, I dare not
say I am currently involved in Foucaultian research. I undertook my PhD
under the supervision of Nikolas Rose, and utilized the genealogical method
in my analysis of Meiji Japan in my thesis. This was in 2001. I have been
living in Japan now for 5 years, and for various combined reasons, am now
more involved in the 'Cultural Studies' scene in Japan. (Have you heard of
'Cultural Typhoon'? I am hosting the 5th symposium in Nagoya. If you're
interested, do come: http://www.cultural-typhoon.org/.) However, I am
hoping to take up the Foucault gauntlet again soon and if there is going to
be some sort of networking (kenkyukai, so forth), I'd love to join in, so
please do keep me posted.
Cheerio!
Kaori

Assuming you mean the translation into English, David, it's available on
amazon.co.uk, but not on amazon.com
ISBN 13 is 978-0-415-27701-3
BTW "Security, Territory, Population" is listed on both sites as due for
publication on 3 April.

For some reason it is difficult to get in the USA. You might need to
order it from the UK.
For example, if you had been looking on amazon.com you would not find
it, but then a quick search on amazon.co.uk and it appears.
There must be a copyright issue for T&F in the USA on this book.

Hello Frank,
You can find that part in Foucault's biography in Sara Mills' "Michel
Foucault" published by Routledge, 2003. Foucault was in Sweden according to
her in 1954.

Hi everyone,
The Foucault Studies pieces are of course very important but for further
readings and an introduction to the current literature on biopower and
biopolitics, we should look into the MULTITUDE past issues, esp. the first
issue (with Lazzarato, Alliez, Ranciere, Latour, Hardt/Negri, etc.)
(http://multitudes.samizdat.net/-Multitudes-1-mars-2000-.html) and
Lazzarato's contribution to issue MULTITUDE 22 (on the two Foucault courses
and liberalism)
(http://multitudes.samizdat.net/Biopolitique-Bioeconomie.html) as well as
LABYRINTHE N. 22, issue III (2005)
(http://www.revuelabyrinthe.org/sommaire1010.html). All these would be quite
useful for analyses of liberalism, neoliberalism, and post-colonial world
orders.

Another reckless but therefore also interessting discusssion of biopower
and colonialism that uses Foucault + Agamben can be found in Achille Mbembe
(eg. his idea of necropolitics

Hello Frank. Unfortunately I cannot provide a
reference for the particulars of which you speak,
but I can point you in the direction of an edited text
which might speak to your interests called 'Rewritting
the history of madness'. I recall reading somewhere,
maybe there, that when Foucault submitted his thesis
for review by his examiners he said, after slamming it
down on the desk in front of them, 'Im not changing a
word'...

Hello to everyone,
Does anybody of you know about publications and/or papers bringing together
Mieke Bals idea of "travelling concepts" and Foucaults understanding of
discourse?
I am working on discourse (Foucault) and narratology (Bal), and I was
wondering whether Foucaults discourse could be understood as a concept in
the term of Mieke Bal, or whether Mieke Bals idea of concept should be read
as something between discourse (maybe even discourse formation) as a larger
frame within concepts travel and 'enoncee' (I apologize for not knowing the
english term) as the singular utterance of a concept.
Thank you very much!
Best regards,
Hania

Hi everyone,
I'm just wondering how many Japanese speakers and/or residents in Japan
are on the list.
I always feel it would be nice to have a Japanese listserv on Foucault
because no such one is available.
Though Japan is a country all works of Foucault except _Herculine Barbin_
and _Le d?sordre des familles_ are translated and much read, there hasn't
been an active network of scholars on the net. Thus, setting up a
listserv, I hope, will help to stimulate discussion and exchange of ideas
among those who have an interest in contemporary Foucault (proper and/or
related) studies in Japan.
I'm making this propostion not because of any intention to "nationalize"
Foucault studies (frankly, I don't appreciate jargon-fillied, self-indulgent
writings or talks by most of Japanese "post-modern" scholars), but because
of the fact that Japanese as a two-byte language is sometimes a barrier to
communicate among Japanese speakers in one-byte language based listservs.
If you find this idea of networking attractive, feel free to contact me.
Best,

Hi Tetz
I am currently in Japan but I am Australian and speak very little
Japanese, chotto chotto. I am based on Toyama-ken at the moment.
I do know the translator of Althusser and Virilio into Japanese,
Yoshi Ichida, who is Professor of French at Kobe University, But I
presume you already know him. He can tell you just how little
Japanese I can speak! There is a Japanese Foucault scholar at the
University of Tokyo whom my friend Warren Montag recommended I
contact, but so far I have not made contact.

supervisor here! He already told me about you. It's a small world, indeed.
Best,
Tetz

Hi Tetz, Hi David,
I am a Japanese speaking subscriber of Foucault-L list! However, I dare not
say I am currently involved in Foucaultian research. I undertook my PhD
under the supervision of Nikolas Rose, and utilized the genealogical method
in my analysis of Meiji Japan in my thesis. This was in 2001. I have been
living in Japan now for 5 years, and for various combined reasons, am now
more involved in the 'Cultural Studies' scene in Japan. (Have you heard of
'Cultural Typhoon'? I am hosting the 5th symposium in Nagoya. If you're
interested, do come: http://www.cultural-typhoon.org/.) However, I am
hoping to take up the Foucault gauntlet again soon and if there is going to
be some sort of networking (kenkyukai, so forth), I'd love to join in, so
please do keep me posted.
Cheerio!
Kaori

Assuming you mean the translation into English, David, it's available on
amazon.co.uk, but not on amazon.com
ISBN 13 is 978-0-415-27701-3
BTW "Security, Territory, Population" is listed on both sites as due for
publication on 3 April.

For some reason it is difficult to get in the USA. You might need to
order it from the UK.
For example, if you had been looking on amazon.com you would not find
it, but then a quick search on amazon.co.uk and it appears.
There must be a copyright issue for T&F in the USA on this book.
