Global Assemblages: Technology, Politics, and Ethics as Anthropological Problems

Anthropological exploration of technology, politics, ethics.

Description

Provides an exciting approach to some of the most contentious issues in discussions around globalization―bioscientific research, neoliberalism, governance―from the perspective of the "anthropological" problems they pose; in other words, in terms of their implications for how individual and collective life is subject to technological, political, and ethical reflection and intervention.
