In his Collge de France lectures of 1975-76, translated and published in Britain in 2003 as Society Must be Defended, Michel Foucault examines what he sees as the continuation of war in peacetime society, inverting Clausewitz's famous dictum that 'War is the continuation of politics with the admixture of other means' to argue the opposite, that 'politics is the continuation of war by other means'. 1 In these lectures, which it should be noted Foucault himself never wrote up or published, he explores the idea that even what is conventionally regarded as peacetime society is structured in all its aspects and operations by conflict
