«Violent Cartographies» is the critical essay by Michael J. Shapiro, published by University of Minnesota Press in paperback (241 pp., in English).
Michael J. Shapiro proposes to "de-map" the state's vision of the globe and rethink war from a cultural perspective. With an ethnographic lens, he analyzes military recruitment ads, film, and literature to show how military masculinity and colonial violence are constructed, and proposes an ethics of minimal violence.
Published in 1997 with the subtitle «Mapping Cultures of War»; includes bibliographic references (pp. 211-236) and index.
Aimed at readers interested in critical theory, political philosophy, and cultural studies, especially the relationship between war and culture.
