Description
Summary:Excerpt: Who extols heroes and marks the contemptible in a global health crisis and geopolitical humanitarian disaster? Contributions to this volume draw provocative attention to the power relations underpinning grand, triumphalist, but ultimately binary narratives of care and social obligations in the parallel experiences of vaccination deniers, border crossing health workers, migrants, and refugees. These experiences, in turn, serve as constructive lenses in examining, comparing, and exposing to some degree the structures and creative undercurrents of resistance to hegemonic forces shaping the industry, body politics, and inequity of care in medical and forced migration contexts.
