Sovereign Acts (paperback original)

Frances Negrón-Muntaner
Released 2010-10-15
Moving the idea of sovereignty beyond the narrow confines of the nation-state, beyond the concept of a power one either has or lacks, this paradigm-shifting work examines the new ways colonized people resist current forms of domination, placing both their subjugation and their resistance within broader contemporary political contexts. A valuable contribution to this debate around indigenous conceptions of sovereignty, Sovereign Acts goes further, to investigate the relationships between sovereignty, gender, sexuality, representation, and the body.
