Description

Cultural Practices of Victimhood sets the agenda for a cultural study of how victimhood is defined and constructed across different contexts. This Routledge volume explores shifting meanings of 'victim' and 'victimhood' as cultural signifiers, examining how these concepts vary depending on their usage and cultural background. Through case studies and practice-based approaches, the book investigates victimhood across diverse domains including ritual commemoration of refugees on Lampedusa, artistic practices by Aboriginal artists such as Richard Bell, and media representations of police violence. The work brings together contributions from cultural studies experts to analyse how victimhood operates as a cultural phenomenon, moving beyond abstract definitions to examine real-world practices and representations. Essential reading for scholars, students, and researchers in cultural studies, anthropology, sociology, and related disciplines seeking to understand the complex ways societies construct and interpret victimhood.
