Table of ContentsReviews"'Rustom Bharucha’s Terror and Performance stages a rigorous and challenging analysis of the relation between terror and performance. The book unpacks the entangled relations between performance, embodiment, violence and history. In the course of his book, Bharucha raises provocative questions that unsettle doxic understandings of both terror and terrorism. His book, I argue, works to materialise unspeakable truths that shed light on the complex aporias that inscribe the relation between terror and performance.' - Joseph Pugliese, Macquarie University ""[Bharucha’s] text overall as well as major geopolitical developments since its publication in spring 2014 suggest a far more conflicting temporality of deferment, suspended between a ‘justice to come’ and a ‘terror-in-waiting.’"" – Professor Markus Wessendorf, University of Hawaii" 'Rustom Bharucha's Terror and Performance stages a rigorous and challenging analysis of the relation between terror and performance.
