Review of Vulnerability in Resistance by Judith Butler, Zeynep Gambetti, and Leticia Sabsay (2016)

摘要

In Vulnerability in Resistance, editors Judith Butler, Zeynep Gambetti, and Leticia Sabsay explain that the work of taking up both vulnerability and resistance as a generative pairing of concepts comes with claims “both risky and true” . They point to the construction of “the suffering other” as an emergent part of social relations, explaining vulnerability as a process both exacerbated and disavowed as means of achieving power (4).
