The Claim of Non-Violence.  a"Frames of War begins where Butler's Precarious Lives left off: on the idea that we cannot grieve for those lost lives that we never saw as lives to begin with. In this age of CNN-mediated war, the lives of those wretched populations of the earth -- the refugees; the victims of unjust imprisonment and torture; the immigrants virtually enslaved by their starvation and legal disenfranchisement -- are always presented to us as already irretrievable and thereby already lost. We may shake our heads at their wretchedness but then we sacrifice them nonetheless, for they are already forgone. By analyzing the different frames through which we experience war, Butler calls for a reorientation of the Left toward the precarity of those lives. Only by recognizing those lives as precarious lives -- lives that are not yet lost but are ever fragile and in need of protection -- might the Left stand in unity against the violence perpetrated through arbitrary state power. -- Publisher description. 0aViolencexSocial aspects. 0aViolencexPolitical aspects. 0aPolitical violence. 0aMass media and public opinionzUnited States. 0aRight and left (Political science) 4aViolencexSocial aspects. 4aViolencexPolitical aspects. 4aPolitical violence. 4aMass media and public opinionzUnited States. 4aRight and left (Political science)07aKriegsverbrechen.2swd07aFolter.2swd07aGewaltmonopol.2swd07aGewaltkriminalität.2swd 7aUSA.2swd
