Description

Law's Cut on the Body of Human Rights: Female Circumcision, Torture and Sacred Flesh is a critical academic work published by Routledge that examines how images of violence and bodily harm shape legal interventions in human rights discourse. This Glasshouse Book explores the complex relationship between legal frameworks and the protection of women and girls, drawing on psychoanalytic and postcolonial perspectives to interrogate how advocates of law imagine and respond to practices of female circumcision. The work challenges assumptions about law's role in safeguarding vulnerable populations by analysing how scenes of bodily violence become defining moments that demand legal attention. Grounded in anthropology and sociology, this scholarly volume offers a nuanced critique of the intersection between human rights law, cultural practice, and the representation of trauma.
