Re-imagining human bodies as productive, singular and embodied materiality removes them from an understanding of \"life\" in an age of terror as pejorative, dispensable, and burdensome, enabling a novel understanding of politics as an embodiment of human bodies with risk, and not as a sphere of activity aimed primarily at managing, silencing, and normalizing the risky other. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDrawing on case studies from several countries and across several disciplines, \u003ci\u003eThe Politics of Bodies at Risk\u003c\/i\u003e investigates the possibility of developing an understanding of the productive possibilities contained in engaging with the human body as a site of a radical interconnectedness between politics, singularity, risk, and security.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Maria Boikova Struble\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1786601230\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781786601230\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rowman \u0026amp; Littlefield Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/15\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.45d","brand":"Maria Boikova Struble","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49082929545471,"sku":"9781786601230","price":46.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/politics-of-bodies-at-risk-maria-boikova-struble-9781786601230","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
