The article starts with a brief description of the project of bioeconomy. Than it shows how life can be commodified and commercialized in two different meanings – as zoe and bios. Finally, the article discusses the project of bioeconomy in the context of global health inequalities – showing why Rose disagrees with Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri’s vision of biopolitics.
