Title: The Force of Nonviolence Author: Judith Butler Narrator: Coleen Marlo Format: mp3 Length: 5 hrs and 51 mins Release date: 02-04-20 Ratings: 4.5 out of 5 stars, 40 ratings Genres: Political Publisher's Summary: Considering nonviolence as an ethical problem within a political philosophy requires a critique of individualism as well as an understanding of the psychosocial dimensions of violence. Butler draws upon Foucault, Fanon, Freud, and Benjamin to consider how the interdiction against violence fails to include lives regarded as ungrievable. By considering how "racial phantasms" inform justifications of state and administrative violence, Butler tracks how violence is often attributed to those who are most severely exposed to its lethal effects.
