Paul M. Rabinow

Professor of Anthropology

Professor Rabinow's current research projects focus on bio-politics in global perspective, with an emphasis on globalizing capitalism, post-genomics, and humanism. The next stage of this multi-year project will take place in France. He will be teaching at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales in 2001-02, where he will consider the manner in which life, labor, and language are currently being assembled within the French post-genomic machinery. His numerous publications include French Modern: Norms and Forms of the Social Environment; Essays in the Anthropology of Reason; and French DNA, Trouble in Purgatory.
