Subject of Violence - Arendtean Exercises in Understanding

At its background are feminist concerns, but also concerns with violence that press against the feminist problematic and push its boundaries. The book's main project is ethico-political 'understanding' and, therefore, it is also about finding an ethico-political language for violence that escapes the standard idioms in which violence is spoken.
