In this volume, though, Foucault begins to turn his attention to the history of governmentality, from the first centuries of the Christian era to the emergence of the modern nation state--shifting the center of gravity of the lectures from the question of biopower to that of government. In light of Foucault's later work, these lectures illustrate a radical turning point at which the transition to the problematic of the government of self and others would begin.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michel Foucault\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0312203608\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780312203603\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Picador USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/03\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 464\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.50w x 0.76d","brand":"Michel Foucault","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44052009025791,"sku":"9780312203603","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d213c1e6-8091-437f-8845-c8e096afd293.jpg?v=1685016448","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/security-territory-population-michel-foucault-9780312203603","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
