>dear Thomas,
>Foucault delivered lectures on the theme of the birth of biopolitics at 
>the college de France in the year 1978-1979. They have not been published 
>in french as a collection (unlike les anormaux (1974-1975), il faut 
>defendre la societe (1975-1976) and l'hermeneutique du sujet (1981-1982)). 
>as far as I know they can be found in french as: Naissance de la 
>biopolitique, in Annuaire du college de France, Histoire des systemes de 
>pensee, 1979, pp.367-372, or in Dits et Ecrits, vol III, pp.818-825.
>These probably only include the introductory lecture to the course, so the 
>only way to get hold of the whole thing, until it gets published, is to go 
>and listen to the tapes at the archives in Paris. In English there's a 
>very short piece called the birth of biopolitics in the essential works 
>1954-1984 volume 1 (penguin) pp.73-79.

>sexuality vol1, 'right of death and power over life' is a great place to 
>start. I include that to our reading list of course :-)
