Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Exploring the dynamics of settler-colonialism, Hagar Kotef examines how colonizers transform spaces of violence into homes, using examples from Israeli Jews in the West Bank to European settlers in the Americas. The book delves into the cultural, political, and spatial mechanisms that facilitate this process, revealing how the violence inherent in colonization shapes both collective and individual identities. Kotef argues that the ability to live amidst generated destruction fosters a troubling attachment to violence, intertwining it with one's sense of self.
