'Fences and Biosecurity: The Politics of Governing Unruly Nature' shows how borders—both physical and conceptual—shape our interactions with #nature and each other. The book is available in #openaccess at: doi.org/10.33134/HUP...

An endorsement from Frédéric Keck (Directeur de recherche CNRS, Laboratoire d’anthropologie sociale). The endorsement reads: "This book is a significant contribution to the anthropology of biosecurity. Drawing on rich cases documenting the materiality of fences in Europe and North America as well as the conceptual issues raised by the politics of borders, it shows how fences enhance the circulation of living beings in the very movement by which it tries to stop them."
