Smith, Mayor and Councilmen Leo G. Roux NAUCURAL ADDRESS OF THE Honorable Gerard L Morin Thank you Mayor Smith, Members of the Clergy, Invited Guests, Members of the Outgoing Council, Members of the Board of Education, Gentlemen of the Council, Ladies and Gentlemen. In the exercise of your power and right of self-government, you have committed to me, one of your fellow citizens, a supreme and sacred trust —and I dedicate myself to your service. There is no legal requirement that the Mayor take the oath of office in the presence of the people, but I feel it is appropriate that the people of Laconia be invited to witness this solemn ceremonial. It affects a tie—a sort of convenant between the people of Laconia and its chief executive. I convenant to serve the whole body of our citizenry by a faithful execution of the duties of a Mayor as prescribed by law. Thus, my promise is spoken—yours un- spoken, but nevertheless real and solemn. May Almighty God give me wisdom, strength and fidelity. Let us pause for a moment in memory of those individuals who have, in the past, rendered public service—have unselfishly given of their time r and who have passed away during the past tw o years : George R.

  • Medical Police and the History of Public Health

Despite critiques ofRosen's Whiggism, his work remains a source of current contrasts between public health and medical police. Rosen's analysis posited an inherent relationship between the idea of medical police and those of cameralism4 and mercantilism, particularly as developed in seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Germany.' Treating cameralism and medical police as "super- structural" forms subordinate to the political and economic relations of the ancien regime, he concluded that medical police was essentially a centralized form of continental and despotic government. It was incompatible with the forms of liberal * Patrick Carroll, MA, PhD, Department of 3W F Bynum and Roy Porter (eds), Medical Sociology, One Shields Avenue, University of fringe & medical orthodoxy 1750-1850, London, California, Davis CA 95616, USA.

  • 1 Policing Shit, Or, Whatever Happened To
    Policing Shit, or, Whatever Happened to the Medical Police? Matthew Wolf-Meyer, Associate Professor of Anthropology, Binghamton University Summary: In this chapter, I discuss the history of medical police, an early biopolitical institution developed to ensure the health of individuals and the public. The medical police were explicitly tasked to address the eruptions of nature into civilization. I then examine a set of situations – neglect and contamination – in which nature erupts into contemporary society, and which U.S. law has difficulty capturing as unlawful. In conclusion, I argue that these difficulties in the law produce ideas about order and disorder related to the place of nature in society that are congealing into criminal types who serve as threats to civilization. Keywords: Biopolitics, civilization, the civilizing process, nature, modernity, control societies, power Introduction: The Promulgation and Failure of an Idea For seven years, my family and I lived in semi-rural Santa Cruz, California in the San Lorenzo Valley. Our neighbors were referred to in the local newspaper – with pride – and by the inhabitants of seaside, urban Santa Cruz – derisively – as “Valley People.” For decades, the inhabitants of the San Lorenzo Valley were dropouts, lumberjacks, marijuana growers, and other working class people of low aspirations, almost entirely white, who had opted out of the Silicon Valley rat race and been out-priced by the coastal California real estate market. Over the first decade of the 21st century, a slow gentrification started to occur, with professors from the nearby university, families working in Silicon Valley, and retirees moving to the San Lorenzo Valley for cheaper housing, which was also construed as being in the country and closer to nature.
