Description
The subject of genome editing and its ethnographical analysis has international appeal thanks to the global character of life sciences and contemporary biotechnological developments. This is the first book to analyze the topics of genome editing/ recombinant DNA on the basis of ethnographic research in the post-communist context. The book is one of the main outcomes of the Horizon 2020 project ARTENGINE, Artificial Life/Sociological and Anthropological Analysis of Life Engineering (Marie-Curie Fellowship Action (for more information see web https://cordis.europa.eu/project/rcn/209315/factsheet/en). The project was selected in an extremely competitive process and therefore the book reflects high-quality research and analytical work.
