Description

Explore the evolving meaning of victimhood in this academic study from Routledge. Cultural Practices of Victimhood sets a new agenda for cultural studies by examining how terms like 'victim' and 'victimhood' act as shifting signifiers depending on their social context. This book uses a practice-based approach and diverse case studies to investigate how victimhood is defined and constructed in modern society. Readers can examine real-world examples ranging from the ritual commemoration of refugees on Lampedusa to the artistic expressions of Aboriginal artist Richard Bell. The text also looks at media practices related to police violence, providing a deep look into how these identities are shaped through social and cultural lenses. This volume is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in the sociology and anthropology of identity and social construction. It offers a rigorous look at how culture influences the way we understand and categorize human experience.
