The elephant and the dragon in contemporary life sciences: A call for decolonising global governance

Joy Y. Zhang, "The elephant and the dragon in contemporary life sciences: A call for decolonising global governance "
English | ISBN: 152615952X | 2022 | 224 pages | PDF | 3 MB

This book provides a powerful diagnosis of why the global governance of science struggles in the face of emerging powers. Through unpacking critical events in China and India over the past twenty years, it demonstrates that the ‘subversiveness’ assumed in the two countries’ rise in the life sciences reflects many of the regulatory challenges that are shared worldwide. It points to a decolonial imperative for science governance to be responsive and effective in a cosmopolitan world. By highlighting epistemic injustice within contemporary science, the book extends theories of decolonisation.
