Bio-Imperialism - Gwen Shuni D'Arcangelis - Bog

Bio-Imperialism critiques an understudied dimension of the war on terror—US focus on bioterror and germ threats. The book examines the post-9/11 mobilization of bioscience and public health fields to this effort, alongside narratives of Arab/Muslim terror, US vulnerability, white femininity, techno-scientific progress, and pandemic preparedness. The book argues that the US significantly advanced its global control over biological, medical, and health resources during the war on terror.
