Terrorist Assemblages by Jasbir K. Puar
Homonationalism in Queer Times
This book delves into the complex intersections of race, gender, sexuality, and nationalism in the post-9/11 world, exploring how these identities are constructed and manipulated within the context of terrorism and security discourses. It examines the ways in which certain bodies are marked as "terrorist" or "threatening" and how these designations are used to justify state violence and surveillance. Through a critical analysis of biopolitics and necropolitics, the book challenges conventional understandings of terrorism and security, offering a nuanced critique of how power operates in contemporary global politics.
