Terror and Performance

Focusing on four primary motifs - september 11, islamophobia, truth and reconciliation, and non-violence - this book offers a non-eurocentric perspective on the dangerous liaisons between terror and performance instead of equating terror with terrorism, it offers alternative epistemologies and narratives of terror by drawing on a vast spectrum of human cruelties relating to war, genocide, apartheid, communal and ethnic violence, in india, rwanda, south africa and palestine, among other parts of the global south
