Michel Foucault Quotes

Government Is Defined As A Right Manner Of Disposing Things So As To Lead Not To The Form Of The Common Good, As The Jurists' Texts Would Have Said, But To An End Which Is 'convenient' For Each Of The Things That Are To Governed. This Implies A Plurality Of Specific Aims: For Instance, Government Will Have T Ensure That The Greatest Possible Quantity Of Wealth Is Produced, That The People Are Provided With Sufficient Means Of Subsistence, That The Population In Enabled To Multiply, Etc. There Is A Whole Series Of Specific Finalities, Then, Which Become The Objective Of Government As Such. In Order To Achieve These Various Finalities, Things Be Disposed - And This Term, [i] Dispose [/i], Is Important Because With Sovereignity The Instrument That Allowed It To Achieve Its Aim - That Is To Say, Obedience To The Laws - Was The Law Itself; Law And Sovereignity Were Absolutely Inseparable.
