Crowding the Elements
Crowding the Elements
From connection to contagion
This essay proposes that we 'think data' with a complex legacy of work, once disavowed and now resurgent in social theory, on crowd formations. I propose this move because social media platforms' mobilization of data - the extractions, ever-shifting reaggregations, and micro-targeting, on the one hand, and our engagements, re-tweets, acts of sharing, and production of virality, on the other - has fuelled such anxious concern about the very things…
When Nature Goes Public: The Making and Unmaking of Bioprospecting in Mexico
Rethinking Reductionism, or, the Transformative Work of Making the Same
Plant-based drug discovery has long served as an iconic instance of both the power and the folly of scientific reductionism: this is a project, after all, that seeks to turn complex indigenous therapeutic practices into isolated molecules, to be scaled-up, and set into mass circulation. This arena has, for good reason, served as an example of the economic and epistemological violences enacted in forms of ‘recognition’ or ‘translation’ that treat …
The Entailments of Exchange
I write at the moment to let you know that we have had a kuru death and a complete autopsy." He was relieved and triumphant. "I did it at 2am, during a howling storm, in a native hut, by lantern l
The Proper Copy: The Insides and Outsides of Domains Made Public
Efforts to make (and keep) knowledge public have provided a powerful counter-model to the recent expansion of exclusive intellectual property rights in such arenas as information technology, digital media, biological research, and pharmaceutical access. While sympathetic to the impulse to counteract the new ‘enclosures’ with knowledge made public, this essay critically interrogates some of the constitutive limits – in fact, the constitutive outsi…
Vinculaciones: Pharmaceutical Politics and Science
Sem patente não há genérico: Acesso Farmacêutico E Políticas De Cópia
Baseado em pesquisas etnográficas no México e na Argentina, este ensaio volta a atenção para as promessas, limites e especificidades do medicamento genérico como artefato político, técnico e legal. Tendo em conta a complexa semiótica comercial da "similaridade" no México e a figura poderosa da copia nacional na Argentina, procuro mostrar que o que está em jogo com a expansão dos mercados para medicamentos genéricos não é simplesmente uma relação …
Biocapital: The Constitution of Postgenomic Life by Kaushik Sunder Rajan
Taking as Giving: Bioscience, Exchange, and the Politics of Benefit-sharing
A growing number of bioethicists, policy-makers, legal scholars, patient groups, and other critically involved parties in North America and Europe recently have started calling for a new ethical principle to gather participants into clinical and genetics research. While long-prevailing regimes of consent have held that people participate in the research process out of `altruism' (and hence do not merit more than nominal payment for their particip…
A Generic Solution: Pharmaceuticals and the Politics of the Similar in Mexico
In 1997 and 1998 the Mexican government encouraged the introduction of generic drugs into Mexico, Latin America's biggest and fastest-growing pharmaceutical market. In contrast to the situation in Brazil, where anti-retrovirals and HIV/AIDS treatment have been the centerpiece of a powerful state-led generics "revolution," in Mexico the move to cheaper, copied medicines has made its strongest mark in the private sector. The rapidly growing pharmac…

Bioprospecting's representational dilemma
This article is about the politically and epistemologically charged endeavor of turning medicinal plants and ‘traditional knowledge’ into pharmaceutical products. In Mexico, where I conducted ethno
From market to market: Bioprospecting's idioms of inclusion
In this article I explore how "community" and its foil, the (urban) market, provide competing models for the market-mediated modes of inclusion and exclusion on offer through bioprospecting agreements. Focusing on the collecting strategies of Mexican scientists implementing one such agreement, I show how community and market inform prospecting participants' ideas not just about (re)distributing benefits but also about managing the political liabi…
