Pressestimmen
"Urgent yet characteristically thoughtful." Mark Fisher, Frieze "The tone of Butler's work conveys a modesty within urgency, a truly delightful need for precision." Angela McRobbie, Times Higher Education Supplement "Earnest, thought-provoking and uncompromisingly critical." Nathanial Mehr, Tribune "Judith Butler is quite simply one of the most probing, challenging, and influential thinkers of our time." J.M. Bernstein
Kurzbeschreibung
In "Frames of War", Judith Butler explores the media's portrayal of state violence, a process integral to the way in which the West wages modern war. This portrayal has saturated our understanding of human life, and has led to the exploitation and abandonment of whole people, who are cast as existential threats rather than as living populations in need of protection. These people are framed as already lost, to imprisonment, unemployment and starvation, and can easily be dismissed. In the twisted logic that rationalizes their deaths, the loss of such populations is deemed necessary to protect the lives of the living. This disparity, Butler argues, has profound implications for why and when we feel horror, guilt, loss and indifference, both in the context of war and, increasingly, everyday life. In this urgent response to increasingly dominant methods of coercion, violence and racism, Butler calls for a reconceptualization of the Left, one united in opposition and resistance to the illegitimate and arbitrary effects of state violence.

Interesting, but theoretically weak
8. Juni 2009
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This is not Butler's best book. It is,however, one of the more interesting books she's written. But theoretically it is kind of weak. She argues that we have a responsibility not to life as such (because people dying is a part of life); but rather our responsibility is to sustain the conditions which allow life to flourish. The problem is she doesn't define 'flourish', so all her talk about philosophy informing social policy is hollow. The other problem is she doesn't connect the dots: if our responsibility is to sustain the conditions which allow life to flourish, and we acknowledge that present conditions don't do that, then don't we also have a responsibility to change our conditions? She shies away from this issue. The other problem is her notion of 'frames' -- this is conceptually retrograde. D&G's concept of abstract machine + assemblage is a much more efficient concept.

Judith the Obscure
20. Dezember 2011
Format:Taschenbuch
"If the violent act is, among other things, a way of relocating the capacity to be violated (always) elsewhere, it produces the appearance that the subject who enacts violence is impermeable to violence. The accomplishment of this appearance becomes one aim of violence; one locates injurability with the other by injuring the other and then taking the sign of injury as the truth of the other."
It was difficult to crack the code of a statement like this and the work is full of such intellectualist concatenations.One is reminded that it was not for nothing that Berkeley's celebrated rhetorician was awarded the prize honoring her proclivity to abstruse writing albeit her incandescence does speak through punctuative interstices a couple of times in each chapter, re-authorizing the impalement of a myasthenically obtuse syntax transpiring upon a neo-Hegelian consciousness. This writerly violence exploits the reader's hermeneutic injurability and permanently coagulates the possibility of transference of sense.

better than before
20. Mai 2009
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Butler continues her profound reflections in Precarious Life, offering insightful analyses of torture, photography, and the probem of mourning in the context of war. It is not just about media analysis of war, but about the question of recognition, survival, destructiveness, and non-violence
