In this highly original work, Robert Desjarlais and Khalil Habrih
present a dialogic account of the lingering effects of the
terroristic attacks that occurred in Paris in November 2015.
Situating the events within broader histories of state violence in
metropolitan France and its colonial geographies, the authors
interweave narrative accounts and photographs to explore a range of
related phenomena: governmental and journalistic discourses on
terrorism, the political work of archives, police and military
apparatuses of control and anti-terror deterrence, the histories of
wounds, and the haunting reverberations of violence in a plurality
of lives and deaths. Traces of Violence is a moving work that aids
our understanding of the afterlife of violence and offers an
innovative example of collaborative writing across anthropology and
sociology.
