These aligned neatly with the state?s drive toward intensive securitization and an aggressive foreign policy. But for the broader citizenry, such affects were tolerable at best and unbearable at worst; they were not sustainable. Figuring Violence catalogs the affects that define the latter stages of this war and the imaginative work that underpins them. These affects?apprehension, affection, admiration, gratitude, pity, and righteous anger?are far more subtle and durable than their predecessors, rendering them deeply compatible with the ambitions of a state embroiling itself in a perpetual and unwinnable war. Surveying the cultural landscape of this sprawling conflict, Figuring Violence reveals the varied mechanisms by which these affects have been militarized. Rebecca Adelman tracks their convergences around six types of beings: civilian children, military children, military spouses, veterans with PTSD and TBI, Guantánamo detainees, and military dogs. All of these groups have become preferred objects of sentiment in wartime public culture, but they also have in common their status as political subjects who are partially or fully unknowable. They become visible to outsiders through a range of mediated and imaginative practices that are ostensibly motivated by concern or compassion. However, these practices actually function to reduce these beings to abstracted figures, silencing their political subjectivities and obscuring their suffering. As a result, they are erased and rendered hypervisible at once. Figuring Violence demonstrates that this dynamic ultimately propagates the very militarism that begets their victimization. 410 0$aFordham scholarship online. 606 $aPsychology, Military 610 $aAmerican militarism. 610 $aPTSD and TBI. 610 $aWar on Terror. 610 $aaffect. 610 $adetainees. 610 $aimagination. 610 $amediation. 610 $amilitary children. 610 $amilitary spouses. 610 $amilitary working dogs. 615 0$aPsychology, Military. 676 $a355.0019 700 $aAdelman$b Rebecca A.$01560085 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793005103321 996 $aFiguring violence$93866509 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03538nam 22006494a 450 001 9910829997303321 005 20230828212857.0 010 $a1-119-20287-6 010 $a1-280-44814-8 010 $a9786610448142 010 $a0-471-79282-9 035 $a(CKB)1000000000354688 035 $a(EBL)257221 035 $a(OCoLC)168768000 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000118482 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12027179 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000118482 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10051846 035 $a(PQKB)10396612 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC257221 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000354688 100 $a20051011d2006 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aCase studies in performance management$b[electronic resource] $ea guide from the experts /$f[edited by] Tony Adkins 210 $aHoboken, N.J. $cJ.
