In A Feminist Theory of Violence, Françoise Vergès denounces the carceral turn that increasingly calls for protection by the state and the police. By focusing on 'violent men', we fail to question the sources of their violence. There is no doubt as to the underlying causes: racial capitalism, ultra-conservative populism, the crushing of the Global South by wars and imperialist looting, the exile of millions and the proliferation of prisons--these all put masculinity in the service of a policy of death. Against the spirit of the times, Vergès refuses the punitive obsession of the state in favor of restorative justice."--Page 4 of cover.;
