Description
Posthuman Biopolitics: The Science Fiction of Joan Slonczewski by Bruce Clarke is a compelling study that delves into the intersection of science fiction, posthuman theory, and biopolitical thought through the works of Joan Slonczewski. Clarke examines how Slonczewski’s novels, known for their sophisticated scientific grounding and imaginative world-building, engage with questions of life, power, and agency in ways that resonate with contemporary debates in posthumanism and biopolitics. The book highlights Slonczewski’s portrayal of life forms that transcend human-centric perspectives—such as symbiotic organisms, intelligent bacteria, and radically different alien societies—and explores how these narratives challenge conventional notions of subjectivity, ethics, and governance. Clarke situates her fiction within broader philosophical discussions about the posthuman condition, ecological interconnectedness, and the politics of life in the age of biotechnology. Posthuman Biopolitics is an essential read for scholars of science fiction, critical theory, and posthuman studies. It offers deep insights into how speculative fiction can expand our understanding of biopolitical power and the evolving definitions of life and intelligence beyond the human.
