White Terror/(Post) Empire

The issue includes: analysis of some of the different forms through which contemporary racism manifests itself; accounts of continuing struggles over land and the rights of indigenous peoples in settler colonies, where there have been recent attempts to undermine gains made in previous battles; a discussion of the role of discourses of love in reinforcing possessive investments in patriarchal white sovereignty; and an analysis of discourses of mateship and fraternity amongst soldiers in the 'Coalition of the Willing'.

This book also includes two articles on asylum seekers in the age of (post)Empire, which look at forms of mental illness produced by the state's inhuman management of asylum seekers, and at negative media representations of asylum seekers.
