Urban Fears and Global Terrors After 7/7 explores the disruption
around that day, taking people back to the events and the sense of
loss, fear and mourning that followed. By framing a new landscape
of urban fear Victor Seidler shows how new technologies helped to
shape responses to a global terror that had been anticipated but
was dreadful in its reality. By listening to the narratives people
shaped for themselves Seidler shows the need for new forms of
social theory that can come to terms with the contemporary
realities of urban fear, complex identities and belongings. This
book:
- explores the relationship of Islam to the West and ways in
which this has been forgotten within traditional forms of social
theory
- engages with a crisis of masculinities and the particular
histories of migration and diaspora from the sub-continent
- follows the discussions around citizenship, identity and
difference and the possibilities of belonging that were being
fought out through different visions of multi-culture and
integration that followed.
This book will prove an incredibly useful resource for students
and researchers of Political Sociology and Citizenship, Diaspora
Studies, Terrorism and Political Violence, Cultural Theory, Ethics
and Philosophy.
