Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the intersection of gender and torture, the book presents a feminist rhetorical analysis of media portrayals surrounding Abu Ghraib and Guantánamo Bay, as well as their representation in popular TV shows like 24. Gronnvoll highlights how the notoriety of American female torturers stems not only from the acts of torture themselves but also from societal outrage regarding their gender roles. This examination reveals the complexities of gender performance in the context of violence and media narratives.
