Violence and the Body: Race, Gender, and the State explores the
relationship between subalternity, the discourse and technology of
the body, and the rise and proliferation of racial, colonial,
sexual, domestic, and state violence, examining the materiality of
violence on the "otherized" body.
Grounded in U.S./Mexico border and Latin American cultural
studies, the essays in this collection intersect discussions of
subalternity, violence, and discourses of the body in a
transethnic, feminist, and global cultural studies context. They
provide a global mapping of contemporary modes and acts of physical
and representational violence and demonstrate how discourses of
otherization are reinforced and interanimated through violence on
what Elizabeth Grosz has called the "intensities" and "flows" of
the body.
