The series of lectures are exceptionally detailed and rich. Foucault spends the opening few weeks wandering through a basic sense of his overall methodology as he closes in on an intelligibility of neoliberalism. This approach lays the groundwork for what Foucault understands as a largely non dialectical nor particularly historicized shift or build from Raison d'etat, the police state, and eventually into neoliberalism as sort of grid in which the individual is understood as a behavioral manifestation of their own enterprise.
His discussions of Germany and the United States are particularly interesting, with the former bringing in a very unique sense of society qua economic development post World War II. An exciting read for the novice and seasoned lover of Foucault.

Less about clarifying what Foucault means by biopolitics and more about the birth of neoliberalism. Still a good read and fascinating. Foucault has dense ideas, but I always find him so readable and enjoyable.
