    "This book addresses a research gap in the study of eugenics in fictional literature: the analysis of the nexus of eugenics and genetics in 21st-century novels, detached from their authors' ideological beliefs. It is based on an understanding of literature as an interdiscourse in Jürgen Link's sense. The study employs categories developed by Rabinow and Rose in the context of Foucault's concept of 'biopower'. It thereby demonstrates that, though officially fallen from grace in light of the Nazi atrocities committed in the name of racial hygiene, eugenic ideas remain surprisingly resilient in the sciences as well as in fiction. Thus, the nexus between eugenics and genetics continues to serve as an important force in the structuring of scientific and contemporary popular (inter-)discourses"--

    The history of the contemporary is a history of crisis - most centrally, the twinned crises of environmental destruction and anti-Black violence. 'Transscalar Critique' argues that contemporary Black literature navigates this crisis by taking a transscalar approach, understanding crisis as working on multiple scales simultaneously, from the molecular to the geological, from the economic to the aesthetic. As a consequence, this book proposes transscalar critique as a mode of literary criticism.

    This book addresses a research gap in the study of eugenics in fictional literature: the analysis of the nexus of eugenics and genetics in 21st-century novels, detached from their authors’ ideological beliefs. It is based on an understanding of literature as an interdiscourse in Jürgen Link‘s sense. The study employs categories developed by Rabinow and Rose in the context of Foucault‘s concept of “biopower.” It thereby demonstrates that, though officially fallen from grace in light of the Nazi atrocities committed in the name of racial hygiene, eugenic ideas remain surprisingly resilient in the sciences as well as in fiction. Thus, the nexus between eugenics and genetics continues to serve as an important force in the structuring of scientific and contemporary popular (inter-)discourses.
