Sex, race, and biopower: A foucauldian genealogy
Hypatia 19 (3):38-62 (2004)
| Abstract | : For many years feminists have asserted an "intersection" between sex and race. This paper, drawing heavily on the work of Michel Foucault, offers a genealogical account of the two concepts showing how they developed together and in relation to similar political forces in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Thus it attempts to give a concrete meaning to the claim that sex and race are intersecting phenomena | |||||||||
