Raising questions about the recent feminist "success" in putting gender-based violence and violence against women on the global agenda, as ethnographers, socio-legal scholars, journalists, and activists who focus on the everyday lives of people and th…
Destabilizing Mastery and the Machine: Palestinian Agency and Gendered Embodiment at Israeli Military Checkpoints
Military checkpoints are inherently unstable technologies of rule due to their contradictory functions of blocking as well as sorting bodies. This paper examines the dynamics of gender, corporeality, and embodiment at Israeli military checkpoints.
