Civilization and Violence : Regimes of Representation in Nineteenth-Century Colombia
Publication
Publication
Offers a new way of understanding the relationship between violence and the formation of foundational myths. Civilization and violence are not necessarily the antagonists we presume-with civilization taming violence, and violence unmaking civilization. Focusing on postindependence Colombia, this book brings to light the ways in which violence and civilization actually intertwined and reinforced each other in the development of postcolonial capitalism (Publisher summary).
