Docile Bodies by Foucault

1. The idea of docile bodies, where the view of a soldier transitions from the one who holds the highest honor to the one who is seen as a 'machine'. Would this transition have occurred of the idea of subservience, control and discipline did not exist?

2. Foucault raises the issue of the manipulation of our society. where our 'bodies' in a way are no longer our own. Even with society knowing this fact, ado our minds and bodies stop being consumed by the control and discipline we were given overtime?
