Michelle Murphy is Professor of History and Women and Gender Studies at the University of Toronto and the author of Seizing the Means of Reproduction: Entanglements of Feminism, Heath, and Technoscience and Sick Building Syndrome and the Problem of Uncertainty: Environmental Politics, Technoscience, and Women Workers, both also published by Duke University Press.
What is a life worth? In the wake of eugenics, new quantitative racist practices that valued life for the sake of economic futures flourished. In The Economization of Life, Michelle Murphy provocatively describes the twentieth-century rise of infrastructures of calculation and experiment aimed at governing population for the sake of national economy, pinpointing the spread of a potent biopolitical logic: some must not be born so that others might live more prosperously. Resituating the history of postcolonial neoliberal technique in expert circuits between the United States and Bangladesh, Murphy traces the methods and imaginaries through which family planning calculated lives not worth living, lives not worth saving, and lives not worth being born. The resulting archive of thick data transmuted into financialized “Invest in a Girl” campaigns that reframed survival as a question of human capital. The book challenges readers to reject the economy as our collective container and to refuse population as a term of reproductive justice.
这本书给了我很大很大的触动。[So What?] 是seminar中最后一个response的主题. Murphy的书确实改变了我的世界观。她不是activist,亦或是writer-activist. 她只是一个observer, 很客观冷静地把现状展示了出来。但是就是这样的文字让我“觉醒”或是“不想觉醒.” 她也在用她的方...

這本書初讀的印象實在不好,置於腦後、作為reference point的時候卻是極為齣色。Murphy painted some broad strokes, and they work very well.
评分理論的部分寫的挺好的:經濟和人口如何被視為互斥關係並影響到國傢政策、生命政治、非人化治理,etc(但是真的沒有人寫過這個嗎?這個可是2017年的書欸);討論孟加拉的時候就覺得有點空泛並各種跳躍瞭。Murphy一邊批評人口學和經濟學忽視人的存在,一邊自己也完全沒有展示齣真正的“人”如何對她所描述的國際組織/政府話語進行互動。讓人感覺好像這些機構真的戰無不勝一樣……
