Relationship between Epidemiological Knowledge and Governance. 001468014 506__ $$aAccess limited to authorized users. 001468014 520__ $$aThe book examines how medical knowledge is produced around bodies that do not fit in the heteronormative framework of the state's rationale and processes. The marginal bodies studied in this research are termed MSM, men who have sex with men, categorized as a high-risk group in the backdrop of HIV/AIDS. These Queer bodies entered the registers of epidemiology and governmentality. This classification is the point of departure for the book. The book interrogates and asks how does a sexual subject become a political question? To answer this political trajectory, the book analyses the category of risk in biomedicine. It investigates how the category of risk becomes critical to the Indian state's rationale and policies wherein, through the ambit of health and population, sexuality is managed. Unearthing the sexual politics in South Asia, the book, based on rich empirical evidence derived from the lived experiences of MSM, narrates the construction of sexual subjectivity and masculinity. The process of construction occurs in negotiation with the Indian state, bringing forth the dimension of the Indian state as a medico-legal governmentality regime and how MSM takes on the identity of a medicalized subject. 001468014 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on June 13, 2023). 001468014 650_0 $$aHomosexuality$$xPolitical aspects$$zIndia. 001468014 650_0 $$aGay men$$zIndia. 001468014 650_0 $$aMasculinity$$zIndia. 001468014 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001468014 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9789811970634 001468014 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9811970629$$z9789811970627$$w(OCoLC)1343119160 001468014 852__ $$bebk 001468014 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-19-7063-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001468014 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1468014$$pGLOBAL_SET 001468014 980__ $$aBIB 001468014 980__ $$aEBOOK 001468014 982__ $$aEbook 001468014 983__ $$aOnline 001468014 994__ $$a92$$bISE
