Title: Excellent Critical Essays on Violent Hegemonies
Review: I have only read a few of the essays in this collection so far, and they are excellent. I especially recommend Catherine Raissiguier's piece on race and domestic partnership in France, Leila Neti's work on the women's dirty protests in Northern Ireland, and the Elizabeth Grosz essay on deconstruction and value. All three are very carefully researched (substantial field analysis), and articulate in driving home their variously made points on the hegemonic power of violence wielded by opressive State mechanisms. I highly recommend this for humanities/social science students, and other readers who are interested in the nexus of minority rights, state violence, and individual civil liberties.
