It explores how the COVID-19 pandemic fundamentally altered the intricate web of connections between life and politics, presenting significant challenges for political actors in Indonesia and Russia.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePractical biopolitics encompasses a range of care and protection regimes, as well as various techniques for governing human lives and administering healthcare. These practices are shaped by the self-securing and self-sustaining public \"conduct of the conduct.\" Within practical biopolitics, there is a sub-field dedicated to analyzing specific policy practices, administrative and managerial tools, and the measures governments employ to combat health threats.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book raises several thought-provoking questions.

By undertaking such comparisons, the book aims to shed light on the complex interplay between health, politics, and international relations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOverall, \"Practical Biopolitics of COVID-19: Indonesian and Russian Experiences\" offers a valuable contribution to the study of biopolitics and crisis management. It provides insights into the specific challenges faced by Indonesia and Russia in responding to the COVID-19 pandemic, while also contributing to broader discussions on the role of government, policy, and international cooperation in addressing health crises.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 349g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 240 x 161 x 14 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781666952131\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Andrey Makarychev,Gede Wahyu Wicaksana","offers":[{"title":"Unspecified","offer_id":44842363060474,"sku":"9781666952131","price":74.97,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1701453245122_book.jpg?v=1701689926","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/practical-biopolitics-of-covid19-indonesian-and-russian-experiences-9781666952131","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
