Reproduction and Biopolitics

Explore the thought-provoking insights of Reproduction and Biopolitics by Silvia De Zordo, published by Taylor & Francis Ltd in 2020. This compelling volume, consisting of 122 pages, delves into the concept of "irrational reproduction." De Zordo examines how societal perceptions label women's and couples' reproductive choices as "irrational" or "irresponsible" when they lead to what is considered the "wrong number" of children. Drawing inspiration from Michel Foucault's theories on biopolitics and biopower, as well as a rich tradition of feminist analysis, this book challenges conventional narratives surrounding reproductive practices. Perfect for readers interested in economics, gender studies, and social policy, Reproduction and Biopolitics invites you to rethink the implications of reproductive choices in today's society.
