Bodily Interventions

In this vast and ever expanding field this collection presents a sample of some of the latest international research on bodily interventions. The study of the body has so often been compartmentalised into disciplinary specialisms. The contributions in this issue present an inter-disciplinary and multi-sited collection. Drawing on different genres in literary studies, labour markets, political theory and cultural analysis, it will help student and specialist scholars to look at the body from different vantage points.
