Immunity and Community: Identity, Ethics, and Biopolitics
Editat de Bouchra Benlemlih, Dr. Mustapha Kharoua, Dr. Mohamed Belamgharien Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 iun 2025
Drawing on frameworks from medical humanities, biopolitics, and ethics, the multidisciplinary contributors interrogate how immunization protocols reflect and reshape societal dynamics-illuminating the ways power, vulnerability, and identity are negotiated in public health discourse. With chapters exploring topics such as migration, representation, global governance, and the logic of action, the book offers a compelling critique of immunitary regimes and their impact on the social body. Rich in theoretical insight and grounded in contemporary relevance, this work will be useful reading for academics, policy makers, and students seeking to understand the cultural and political stakes of life preservation in a post-pandemic world.

Recenzii
Never before has the immune system become so embedded in the community as in the recent COVID pandemic. This book analyzes the full ambivalence of this process, simultaneously medical, social, and political-the necessity, but also the risk, underlying immunization practices in a world riven by economic, ethnic, and environmental inequalities. Drawing on contemporary philosophical debate, it opens a powerful and original perspective on our world, bridging the languages of biology, law, and ethics.
