«Discounting Life: Necropolitical Law, Culture, and the Long War on Terror» is the essay by Jothie Rajah, in paperback.
The essay focuses on the extrajudicial and extraterritorial killings by the United States in the war on terror, hailed as justice. It shows how images, narratives and affects operate as law and devalue certain lives to protect others, and traces the continuities of that racialized and imperial violence.
It is part of the Cambridge Studies in Law and Society series. English-language edition of 370 pages published in 2022.
Work aimed at scholars of law, history and political philosophy, with an interest in the critical analysis of the war on terror.
