In "Cultures of Fear," a truly world-class line up of scholars
explore how governments use fear in order to control their
citizens. The "social contract" gives modern states responsibility
for the security of their citizens, but this collection argues that
governments often nurture a culture of fear within their contries.
When people are scared of "terrorist" threats, or "alarming rises"
in violent crime they are more likely to accept oppressive laws
from their rulers. "Cultures of Fear" is and interdisciplinary
reader for students of anthropology and politics. Contributors
include Noam Chomsky, Slavoj Zizek, Jean Baudrillard, Catharine
MacKinnon, Neil Smith, Cynthia Enloe, David L. Altheide, Cynthia
Cockburn and Carolyn Nordstrum.
