"La Phalange analyses penal affairs as a confrontation coded by 'civilization', the great crimes not as monstrosities, but as the fatal return and revolt of what is repressed, the minor illegalities not as the necessary margins of society, but as a rumbling from the midst of the battle-field." - Foucault, Discipline & Punish: The Birth of the Prison
