sounds like Governmentality esssay which can be found either in The Foucault 
effect : studies in governmentality, with two lectures by and an interview 
with Michel Foucault / edited by Graham Burchell, Colin Gordon, and Peter 
Miller.
Published Chicago : University of Chicago Press, 1991. or in Power / Michel 
Foucault ; edited by James D. Faubion ; translated by Robert Hurley and 
others.
Published London : Penguin, 2002.

if you cant find the exact thing there, there are many similar passages 
anyway.

I wrote down the following quote a while back from an article or book by 
Foucault but I cannot remember the source.
Could anyone help? I did not it as being a 1979 reference but have no idea 
if that refers to the original or translated
version. I may have even got it from a book that refers to the Foucault 
quote.

"The things which the government is concerned about are men, but men in 
their relations, their links, their
imbrications with those other things which are wealth, resources, means of 
subsistence, the territory with its specific
qualities, climate, irrigation, fertility, etc; men in their relation to 
that other kind of things which are customs,
habits, ways of doing and think, etc; lastly, men in their relation to that 
other kind of things again which are
accidents and misfortunes such as famine, epidemic, death, etc."(Foucault 
1979, p.11)
