HISTSCI 133: Biotechnology and Society

Harvard University
Analyzes contemporary debates about stem cells, genetically modified organisms, patenting of life, and cloning using the tools of history and the social sciences. Locating the origins of biotechnology in agricultural and beer-brewing techniques of the nineteenth century, this class traces the recent history of attempts to control, manipulate, and utilize biology to further human ends. Understanding the political, economic, medical, and cultural histories of biotechnology will illuminate how contemporary biotechnologies are re-framing what we mean by 'natural,' 'artificial,' 'living,' and 'human.'
