About this product

Product Information

This is a cultural history of borders, hygiene and race. It is about foreign bodies, from Victorian vaccines to the pathologised interwar immigrant, from smallpox quarantine to the leper colony, from sexual hygiene to national hygiene to imperial hygiene. Taking British colonialism and White Australia as case studies, the book examines public health as spatialised biopolitical governance between 1850 and 1950. It concerns the colonial management of race dovetailed with public health into new boundaries of rule, into racialised cordons sanitaires .
