The study utilises Foucault's work on ‘productive power’, the ‘practices of t... Read More about Productive power and the 'practices of the self' in contraceptive counselling.

Genetic evidence for female-biased dispersal and gene flow in a polygynous primate (2006)
Journal Article
Hammond, R. L., Handley, L. J. L., Winney, B. J., Bruford, M. W., & Perrin, N. (2006). Genetic evidence for female-biased dispersal and gene flow in a polygynous primate. Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 273(1585), 479-484. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2005.3257

Many models of sex-biased dispersal predict that the direction of sex-bias depends upon a species' mating system. In agreement with this, almost all polygynous mammals show male-biased dispersal whereas largely monogamous birds show female-biased dis...
