Reviews

“This book embodies the very best of what a queerfeminist curiosity has to offer global politics – unlikely sites and subjects of biopolitical (in)security and how they are inflected through and rub against race, gender and sexuality. By following bodily fluids – plasma, vomit and semen – the book takes the reader on a slippery ride through the messy assemblages of security practices to creatively meditate on what this means for the entangled distribution of life and death in the everyday. A must-read for students and scholars interested in subverting the discipline and creatively thinking otherwise.” Cristina Masters, University of Manchester
