Summary: The Biopolitics of Race provides philosophical analysis of immigration, a pressing public issue, by focusing on how concerns over state health are used to identify and deny entrance to Mexican, Muslim, homosexual, and female immigrants. Discourse about state health can be seen as the leading indicator for determining how races are defined in modern society.
