Description
In this urgent response to violence, racism and increasingly aggressive methods of coercion, Judith Butler explores the media 's portrayal of armed conflict, a process integral to how the West prosecutes its wars. In doing so, she calls for a re-conceptualization of the Left, one united in opposition and resistance to the illegitimate and arbitrary effects of interventionist military action.
