The history of sexuality: An introduction, volume I

by Foucault, Michel (1978)

Key Passage

All this garrulous attention which has us in a stew over sexuality, is it not motivated by one basic concern: to ensure population, to reproduce labor capacity, to perpetuate the form of social relations: in short, to constitute a sexuality that is economically useful and politically conservative? (p.36)
