Violence and the Body: Race, Gender, and the State explores therelationship between subalternity, the discourse and technology of the body, and therise and proliferation of racial, colonial, sexual, domestic, and state violence, examining the materiality of violence on the "otherized" body.Grounded in U.S./Mexico border and Latin American culturalstudies, the essays in this collection intersect discussions of subalternity, violence, and discourses of the body in a transethnic, feminist, and global culturalstudies context. They provide a global mapping of contemporary modes and acts ofphysical and representational violence and demonstrate how discourses ofotherization are reinforced and interanimated through violence on what ElizabethGrosz has called the "intensities" and "flows" of thebody.
