Description
Having exhausted the possibilities for geographical colonial expansion, as well as reaching the fiscal limitations of virtual space, capital is now concentrated on exploiting a new frontier - organic molecular space. CAE began mapping this development in Flesh Machine by examining the use of reproductive technologies and their promise for achieving an intensified degree of control over worker and citizen. This work acts as a companion to this first book by mapping the politics of tangencies and offering a model for the creation of a contestational biology, as well as providing direct interventionist tactics for the disruption of this new assault on the organic realm. This book is a user's guide for anyone interested in the critical thinking and practice of biotech as a social, scientific and political phenomenon.
