'Violence Expressed brings together cutting edge work on violence from an impressive array of anthropologists. This wonderful book builds on existing anthropological literature by offering new methodologies for the study of violence and cutting a path for theoretical approaches that push beyond silence to understanding.'

Compelling, comprehensive, illuminating. In exploring the deep ways violence is expressed, sensed, and lived, these authors offer the best of contemporary anthropological ethnography and theory.' Carolyn Nordstrom, University of Berkeley, USA 'The editors of Violence Expressed have presented an elegant volume focusing on the means by which violence is normalized, voiced and muted by perpetrators, victims, bystanders and researchers. In a remarkably coherent and complementary collection, the contributions all wrestle with the contention by leading researchers Appadurai (1996) and Das (2007) that language is limited in grappling with the horrors of violence... excellent and informative... powerful and poetic... a deeply contextualized and insightful study...

Contemporary Sociology 'The diverse ethnographic content in Violence Expressed is united by two useful approaches: the first is the idea that violence relies on silence to make it normative; the second is the exploration of concepts like silence through their historical and cultural setting rather than through their homology with Western discourse. The book could have followed the well-worn path of

A compelling contribution to ongoing discussions on anthropological writing, this book will be of interest to anthropologists and social scientists working on violence, gender, collective representations and memory.
