"A beautifully written and carefully crafted analysis of the politics of domestic violence treatment and survivorhood. Through the construct of 'traumatic citizenship, ' it reveals how gender, race, class, and sexuality all become intertwined in therapeutic state practice--and offers a model of intersectional analysis and theory building."--Lynne Haney, Professor of Sociology, New York University "To accommodate the Liberal Democratic Regimes of the l990's, the Shelter Movement in the U.S. transformed the victimization and survival of abused women from stages in their experience of recovery…mehr

"A beautifully written and carefully crafted analysis of the politics of domestic violence treatment and survivorhood. Through the construct of 'traumatic citizenship, ' it reveals how gender, race, class, and sexuality all become intertwined in therapeutic state practice--and offers a model of intersectional analysis and theory building."--Lynne Haney, Professor of Sociology, New York University "To accommodate the Liberal Democratic Regimes of the l990's, the Shelter Movement in the U.S. transformed the victimization and survival of abused women from stages in their experience of recovery into facets of performance needed to access citizenship, including the racialized tropes of respectable motherhood. A shout from post-modern sociology based in first-hand accounts from the trenches. A Tour de Force."--Evan Stark (PhD, MS) Author of Coercive Control (Oxford, 2007) "The Politics of Surviving shines new light on studies of domestic violence, making critical contributions to the scholarship of the neoliberal and the "therapeutic state" and feminism, and the relationship between the state and feminist movements, citizenship, and the scholarship on violence in the lives of women. I highly recommend this path-breaking book."--Cecilia Menjívar, author of Enduring Violence "Sweet resists easy tropes of the heroic survivor or of the downfall of a pure utopian feminism. Her account is nuanced, sensitive, and sophisticated. This groundbreaking book will be a must-read for those interested in state violence, intersectionality, gender-based violence, and gender and sexuality." --Elizabeth A Armstrong, coauthor of Paying for the Party: How College Maintains Inequality
