Ontologies of Violence

Through interpretations of Jacques Derrida's early work, the philosophical turn in twenty-first century Mennonite pacifist theology, and Grace Jantzen's feminist critique of violence, this book provides a critical theory that neither abandons the concept of violence to subjectivity, nor fixes it in place.
