Description

Explore the complex relationship between governance and human reproduction in this academic volume from Routledge. The text examines the concept of "irrational reproduction," analyzing how the reproductive choices of women and couples are often labeled as irresponsible when they do not meet specific population goals. In a global landscape facing declining fertility, this book tracks how population policies have moved toward a neoliberal framework. It looks at how these shifts affect social and economic inequalities while examining the rise of rights discourses regarding the unborn. By applying Foucault's theories on biopolitics and biopower, the work provides a deep look at how modern states manage life and population through various ethnographic lenses. This is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in the sociology of reproduction, political science, and medical anthropology.
