Abstract	The chapter adopts a Foucauldian conceptual approach to explore the power and regulatory dynamics inherent in contemporary smart city and smart infrastructure initiatives. People discusses three levels of distinction below, focusing on how Foucault opposes the two apparatuses with regard to the governed reality or referent object of governing, referentiality axis; normalisation, normativity axis and space, spatiality axis. Having outlined the Foucauldian distinction between security and discipline, they now start their analysis of the power dynamics implied by contemporary smart city initiatives. To further develop this discussion of how governing through code relates to normalization, normativity axis, they will take up and empirically address the three, processual, flexible and contextual, normative logics of Foucauldian security. People believe, if they are to understand how smart technologies affect everyday life, or if they are to debate the opportunities and risks associated with the much acclaimed smart city. © 2016 Simon Marvin, Andrés Luque-Ayala and Colin McFarlane.
