Description

Explore the complex relationship between biotechnology and social identity with Wellness in Whiteness: Biomedicalization and the Promotion of Whiteness and Youth among Women. Published by Routledge as part of the Research in Gender and Society series, this academic work examines the social and ethical implications of global trends in skin-whitening and anti-ageing technologies. Using an intersectional theoretical framework, the text applies methodologies from cultural studies, the sociology of knowledge, and critical race theory. It provides a deep analysis of technical reports and the history of colonial medicine to understand how emerging biotechnologies impact perceptions of race and age. This book serves as a vital resource for students and researchers interested in the sociology of medicine, gender studies, and the intersection of technology and social norms.
