Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Savage Constructions challenges the popular Western assumption that violence is an essential quality of darker-skinned populations, arguing that Western imperialist projects are largely responsible for the current violences that rebound in victim societies of the post-colonial world. Rebounding violence expresses victim abjection and overly aggressive identity work in survivors of repressive regimes after long-term exposure to denigrating myths that cast the victims as morally wanting and deserving of the abuse they suffered.
