Transforming Contagion : Risky Contacts among Bodies, Disciplines, and Nations, Hardback Book

Transforming Contagion : Risky Contacts among Bodies, Disciplines, and Nations Hardback

Edited by Breanne Fahs, Annika Mann, Eric Swank, Sarah Stage

Hardback

Description

2019 Choice Outstanding Academic Title Moving from viruses, vaccines, and copycat murder to gay panics, xenophobia, and psychopaths, Transforming Contagion energetically fuses critical humanities and social science perspectives into a boundary-smashing interdisciplinary collection on contagion.

The contributors provocatively suggest contagion to be as full of possibilities for revolution and resistance as it is for the descent into madness, malice, and extensive state control.

The infectious practices rooted in politics, film, psychological exchanges, social movements, the classroom, and the circulation of a literary text or meme on social media compellingly reveal patterns that emerge in those attempts to re-route, quarantine, define, or even exacerbate various contagions.
