'The eye of power' is listed as: 'L'Oeil du Pouvoir', published as a preface to Jeremy Bentham, Le Panoptique (Paris, Belfond, 1977). This comprises a facsimile of the French version (Paris, 1791) and a translation of the first part of the English version (Dublin and London) of Bentham's Panopticon, together with a pstface by Michelle Perrot on Bentham anf the Panopticon which has a useful bibliography. Michelle Perrot's works include Les ouvriers en greve (1974). Te full English version of Bentham's text is contained in Volume IV of the Browning edition of his works (Edinburgh 1838-43; Russel & Russel, New York, 1971).
