Human bodies have become the primary battlefields of power politics, and the object of utopian promises. The old modernist dreams of the 'new man' with an extended life-span, ergonomically optimised for industrial production, happily subjected to regimes of discipline and control, and flexible to move where the labour market requires, live on in the contemporary scenarios for bio-technological enhancements, organ trade, planned and forced migration, birth control, etc. Bodies are opened up and moved around, they become the site of a postmodern utopia that locates itself within our own flesh and blood.
