Status Updates From Nacimiento de la biopolític...

It’s clear Foucault is trying to explain the motivation behind imperialism, and how it’s linked to liberal politics. However, he’s basically just explaining a phenomenon that we know to be true today. I wonder if that was the case when he gave a lecture, or if, maybe it was something seen as revolutionary? It’s interesting that he says that Napoleon had an administrative monarchy, and was anti-police state.
