Terror and Performance

More about the book

Rustom Bharucha presents a thought-provoking investigation into the complex relationship between terror and performance, challenging conventional views that equate 'terror' with 'terrorism.' The book explores diverse narratives and epistemologies surrounding human cruelties, highlighting instances of war, genocide, and ethnic violence across various regions, including India, the Philippines, Rwanda, South Africa, and Palestine. By offering a non-Eurocentric perspective, it seeks to deepen the understanding of these critical issues in the global South.
