Описание: Bio-imperialism focuses on an understudied dimension of the war on terror-the fight against bioterrorism. This component of the war included the enlistment of bioscientists and health workers to augment U.S. biodefense and disease control infrastructure, advancing U.S. control over biological resources on a global scale. The book argues that U.S. imperial ambitions drove this move, aided by U.S. government and mass media narratives that deployed gendered and raced discourses of terrorism, U.S. vulnerability, and white femininity-intertwined with discourses about disease and technoscientific progress. The result was further entrenchment of tropes of Arabs, Muslims, and other racially marginalized communities as embodying terror and disease; the revamping of research industries conducting dangerous lab experiments on pathogens; the militarization of public health and its deployment of feminized bodies in service of warmongering; and decreased autonomy for global south nations to administer health care to their populations. Yet as U.S. bio-empire pressed forward, so too did new forms of confrontation-its critics rejected its hegemonic narratives, electing instead to build transnational solidarities and engage in collective struggle to oppose the mobilization of the bioscience and public health fields for war and empire. Bio-imperialism is a sobering look at how the war on terror impacted the world in ways that we are only just starting to grapple with.

Описание: Bio-Imperialism focuses on an understudied dimension of the war on terror: the fight against bioterrorism. This component of the war enlisted the biosciences and public health fields to build up the U.S. biodefense industry and U.S. global disease control. The book argues that U.S. imperial ambitions drove these shifts in focus, aided by gendered and racialized discourses on terrorism, disease, and science. These narratives helped rationalize American research expansion into dangerous germs and bioweapons in the name of biodefense and bolstered the U.S. rationale for increased interference in the disease control decisions of Global South nations. Bio-Imperialism is a sobering look at how the war on terror impacted the world in ways that we are only just starting to grapple with.

This volume brings together a collection of leading international experts to revisit and review our understanding of the Cuban Missile Crisis, via a critical reappraisal of some of the key texts.
In October 1962, humankind came close to the end of its history. The risk of catastrophe is now recognised by many to have been greater than realised by protagonists at the time or scholars subsequently. The Cuban missile crisis remains one of the mostly intensely studied moments of world history. Understanding is framed and informed by Cold War historiography, political science and personal experience, written by scholars, journalists, and surviving officials. The emergence of Soviet (later Russian) and other national narratives has broadened the scope of enquiry, while scrutiny of the operational, especially military, dimensions has challenged assumptions about the risk of nuclear war.
The Cuban Missile Crisis: A Critical Reappraisal brings together world leading scholars from America, Britain, France, Canada, and Russia to present critical scrutiny of authoritative accounts and to recast assumptions and interpretations. The book aims to provide an essential guide for students of the missile crisis, the diplomacy of the Cold War, and the dynamics of historical interpretation and reinterpretation. Offering original ideas and agendas, the contributors seek to provide a new understanding of the secrets and mysteries of the moment when the world went to the brink of Armageddon.
This book will be of great interest to students of the Cuban missile crisis, Cold War Studies, nuclear proliferation, international history and International Relations in general.
