In a moment when competing victim claims overwhelm public discourse, leading many to shun victim talk, Wronged gets so much right. By disentangling systemic precarity from privileged grievance, Chouliaraki recuperates the language of victimization for the most vulnerable. Wronged is a rich and sophisticated study that makes a major contribution to overcoming our current political impasse., This is an important book on a topic that has puzzled many, namely how powerful and privileged men manage to pass as the victims of their own victims. It will be essential reading for feminist scholarship, cultural and media studies as well as the study of intersectionality., In a moment when competing victim claims overwhelm public discourse, leading most to conclude that victim talk is distracting and destructive, Wronged gets so much right. Rather than join the chorus rejecting the victim idiom, Lilie Chouliaraki offers a way to recuperate it. By charting the growing pliability of victim status, how victimhood became unmoored from materiality and power, and how the politics of pity serves emotional capitalism, Chouliaraki disentangles systemic vulnerability from privileged grievance, and thus reclaims the language of victimization for the most vulnerable. Wronged is a rich and sophisticated study that makes a major contribution to overcoming our current political impasse., Wronged demonstrates with aplomb the current market logic of victimhood narratives and helps to illuminate the problems of present political discourse beyond rote lamentations of 'polarization.', How have powerful and privileged men managed to pass themselves off as the victims of their own victims? This important book offers a new and convincing answer. It is essential reading for feminist scholarship, cultural and media studies, and the study of intersectionality., Where has the holy sorrow of silent saints gone? Lilie Chouliaraki has an answer. It's vanished into the market of competitive suffering, one that, like all markets, advantages the usual suspects. She urgently and eloquently calls us, in the name of a just and beautiful polity, to attend to suffering undistorted by power., Wronged is an instant classic for anyone seeking to make sense of the pervasive politics of victimhood in the era of digital platforms and profound polarization. In writing that is both strikingly original and deeply moving, Chouliaraki performs the magic trick of rendering visible what was previously unseen: even if suffering is universal, the politics of pain is deeply embedded within power relations and privileges the voices of the powerful over those of the powerless., A nuanced analysis of how victimhood is politicised in contemporary society...a powerful and urgent warning to readers about the culture of victimhood in contemporary times., Wronged is an instant classic for anyone seeking to make sense of the pervasive politics of victimhood in the era of digital platforms and profound polarization. Through her writing, which is both strikingly original and deeply moving, Chouliaraki performs the magic trick of rendering visible what was previously unseen: Even if suffering is universal, the politics of pain is deeply embedded within power relations, and privileges the voices of the powerful over those of the powerless., Though sophisticated and theoretically complex, Chouliaraki's narrative is laid out in clear and accessible prose and is grounded throughout by a broad range of contemporary case studies, making Wronged a valuable teaching resource (for students of feminist theory, politics, media and cultural studies, and critical discourse analysis) as well as a pathbreaking theoretical text.

Synopsis
Why is being a victim such a potent identity today? Who claims to be a victim, and why? How have such claims changed in the past century? Who benefits and who loses from the struggles over victimhood in public culture? In this timely and incisive book, Lilie Chouliaraki shows how claiming victimhood is about claiming power: who deserves to be protected as a victim and who should be punished as a perpetrator. She argues that even though victimhood has long been used to excuse violence and hierarchy, social media platforms and far-right populism have turned victimhood into a weapon of the privileged. Drawing on recent examples such as the overturning of Roe v. Wade , movements like #MeToo and Black Lives Matter, and the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as historical ones from the major wars of the twentieth century and the Civil Rights Movement, Wronged reveals why claims of victimization are so effective at reinforcing instead of alleviating inequalities of class, gender, and race. Unless we come to recognize the suffering of the vulnerable for what it is--a matter not of victimhood but of injustice--Chouliaraki powerfully warns, the culture of victimhood will continue to perpetuate old exclusions and enable further injuries., In this timely and incisive book, Lilie Chouliaraki shows why claims of victimization are so effective at reinforcing instead of alleviating inequality.

- m***a (261)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoThe book was in exactly the condition described in the listing. I generally don’t buy books that only have one photo.It was shipped quickly. The book arrived via Amazon box truck and was in Amazon packaging, so I assume this seller also lists books on Amazon. I wish I had known this as I am trying to not shop Amazon. I just think other buyers might want to know this. Still, the book was packed with care in a bubble envelope. Shipping costs were reasonable, but there was no tracking available.The Anne of Green Gables Cookbook by Macdonald (N° 187076052775)
