In this exceptional investigation, Rustom Bharucha offers a compelling, non-Eurocentric perspective on the dangerous liaisons between terror and performance. Questioning the equation of 'terror' with 'terrorism, ' this bold text offers alternative epistemologies and narratives of terror. It draws on a vast spectrum of human cruelties - relating to war, genocide, apartheid, communal and ethnic violence - in India, the Philippines, Rwanda, South Africa and Palestine, among other parts of the global South.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. This work goes where other books fear to tread. It reaches the parts other scholars might imagine in their dreams but would neither have the international reach nor the critical acumen and forensic flourish to deliver. Alan Read, King's College LondonThis book is not only timely. It is overdue and it is a masterpiece unrivalled by any book I know of. Erika Fischer-Lichte, Freie Universitaet BerlinThe first and only book that focuses on the intersections of performance, terror and terrorism as played out beyond a Euro-American context post-9/11. It is an important work, both substantively and methodologically. Jenny Hughes, University of Manchester A profound and tightly bound sequence of reflections a rigorously provocative book. Stephen Barber, Kingston University LondonIn this exceptional investigation Rustom Bharucha considers the realities of Islamophobia, the legacies of Truth and Reconciliation, the deadly certitudes of State-controlled security systems and the legitimacy of counter-terror terrorism, drawing on a vast spectrum of human cruelties across the global South. The outcome is a brilliantly argued case for seeing terror as a volatile and mutant phenomenon that is deeply lived, experienced, and performed within the cultures of everyday life.
