        Activist Studies of Science & Technology

        This distinctive series publishes accessible, engaging books on social and political activism in science, technology and medicine, and in support of movements for justice and sustainability around the world. Situated at the intersections of science and technology studies (STS), history, sociology, and anthropology, the series tackles some of the world’s most pressing problems—from climate change to health care, agriculture, and food insecurity—helping readers to better understand the entanglements of scientific and technological developments with state power and new or intensified forms of injustice.
