The Work of Antidepressants: Preliminary Notes on How to Build an Alliance Between Feminism and Psychopharmacology
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 13 March 2006
Abstract
Most feminist analyses of pharmaceutical medication engage with social or cultural concerns. This commentary will be more organic in focus. Is it possible that biological treatments of depression are more politically interesting than hitherto imagined in feminist scholarship? I will argue that innovative analyses of the body and psychological distress are possible when one is closely attuned to the detail of psychopharmaceutical treatment.
