Rachel Sánchez-Rivera is a Fellow in the Department of Gender Studies at the London School of Economics. Her research bridges gender studies, history, science, medicine, and sociological theory, offering a diverse array of transnational perspectives in the critical studies of eugenics and ‘race’ science. Her forthcoming book, 'Slippery Eugenics: Introduction to Critical Studies of Race, Gender, and Coloniality,' published by Sage in 2024, highlights the global interconnectedness of eugenic ideas and practices throughout history and explores their legacies in contemporary state policies and individual self-regulation. Sánchez-Rivera's project, 'An Exploration of Mexican Eugenics: Racism, Reproduction, and the Nation,' set for publication in 2026 by the University of Iowa Press as part of the ‘Reproductive Justice’ series, examines the historical development of eugenic discourse and practices in Mexico from the 19th century to the present. Her work has been published in prominent academic journals, including the Journal of Historical Sociology, Health and Illness, and the Bulletin of Latin American Research.
