The Intimate Life of Dissent examines the meanings and implications of public acts of dissent, drawing on examples from ethnography and history. Acts of dissent are never simply just about abstract principles, but also come at great personal risk to both the dissidents and to those close to them.

Produktbeschreibung
The Intimate Life of Dissent examines the meanings and implications of public acts of dissent, drawing on examples from ethnography and history. Acts of dissent are never simply just about abstract principles, but also come at great personal risk to both the dissidents and to those close to them. Dissent is, therefore, embedded in deep, complex and sometimes contradictory intimate relations. This book puts acts of high principle back into the personal relations out of which they emerge and take effect, raising new questions about the relationship between intimacy and political commitment. It does so through an introduction and eight individual chapters, drawing on examples including Sri Lankan leftists, Soviet dissidents, Tibetan exiles, Kurdish prisoners, British pacifists, Indonesian student activists and Jewish peace activists.

The Intimate Life of Dissent will be of interest to postgraduate students and researchers of anthropology, history, political theory and sociology. Written in a clear and accessible style, it is also suitable for teaching introductory undergraduate courses on political anthropology.

'In this collection, the socialities of intimacy multiply and offer other ways of accessing dissidences in worlds not so distant from Brazilian readers. It is still a pertinent question, however, to imagine how dissenters not informed by graphic forms (for example, writing) would present their intimacies, or even the non-human modes of dissident intimacies. These are questions for reading such reflections.'
*Mana
{::}**'To what extent are experiences, expectations and obligations from and to friends and partners, comrades or family members in harmony with dissident practices and when do they stand in almost irreconcilable conflict with each other? Or should they rather be understood as mutually dependent aspects of resistant socialities? What roles do the beautiful and dark sides of solidarity, love or antagonism play and how are they expressed in ways of subjectification and forms of political articulation? The exciting anthology revolves around such and related questions.'
