Frames of war : when is life grievable?


Description


Summary: The media's portrayal of state violence has saturated our understanding of human life, and has led to the exploitation and abandonment of whole people, who are cast as existential threats rather than as living populations in need of protection. This title explores this portrayal, a process integral to the way in which the West wages modern war.
