In the usual order of things, lives run their course and eventually one becomes who one is. Bodily and psychic transformations do nothing but reinforce the permanence of identity. But as a result of serious trauma, or sometimes for no reason at all, a subject’s history splits and a new, unprecedented persona comes to live with the former person - an unrecognizable persona whose present comes from no past and whose future harbors nothing to come; an existential improvisation, a form born of the accident and by accident. Out of a deep cut opened in a biography, a new being comes into the world for a second time. What is this form? A face? A psychological profile? What ontology can it account for, if ontology has always been attached to the essential, forever blind to the aléa of transformations? What history of being can the plastic power of destruction explain? What can it tell us about the explosive tendency of existence that secretly threatens each one of us?Continuing her reflections

《加薩危機》由知名政治評論家諾姆・喬姆斯基與以色列歷史學者伊蘭・帕佩共同撰寫，深入剖析以巴衝突的歷史脈絡與現實困局。從以色列在「鑄鉛行動」中對學校、醫院的攻擊，到使用白磷彈所引發的國際關注，本書不僅回顧事件經過，更將其置於以色列長期對巴勒斯坦政策的歷史背景中探討。內容詳實、立場清晰，是了解當前中東政治與人道危機的重要讀物，適合關心國際局勢、公義與和平議題的讀者深入閱讀與反思。Co-authored by two leading voices in the struggle to liberate Palestine, a clear-sighted and essential analysis of the political context around this region at a desperate impasseFrom the targeting of schools and hospitals, to the indiscriminate use of white phosphorus, Israel's conduct in 'Operation Cast Lead' has rattled even some of its most strident supporters. In Gaza in Crisis, Noam Chomsky and Ilan Pappé survey the fallout from that devastation, and place the massacre in Gaza in the context of Israel's long-standing war against the Palestinians. It is a rigorous, historically informed and much-needed analysis of the situation and will be welcomed by all those eager for Chomsky's and Pappé's insights into yet another political catastrophe.'Noam Chomsky is a global phenomenon . . .he may be the m

本書是 Spivak 對「亞洲」概念所提出的重要反思，她拒絕將亞洲視為單一、可概括的對象，而是強調其內在的差異性與歷史層次。書中收錄多篇關鍵文章，從原住民、性別、都市化到離散經驗，交織政治現實與人文教育的責任，並反省理論在不同地理與社會脈絡中的侷限。Spivak 以細膩而嚴謹的筆法，提醒讀者必須在全球化語境中，重新思考知識、生產與倫理的關係。本書不僅是後殖民研究的重要文本，對關心後殖民思想、亞洲研究與文化政治的讀者而言，本書提供了不可取代的思考路徑。In this major intervention into the 'Asian Century', Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak challenges the reader to re-think Asia, in its political and cultural complexity, in the global South and in the metropole.Major work from one of the world’s most distinguished literary and cultural theorists Intervenes in the fraught issues generated by ideas of Asia Featured essays include “Foucault and Najibullah,” “Moving Devi,” “Responsibility,” and “Megacity” Other chapters focus on, among other things, Human Rights, and the turbulent "present" of the Caucasus Essential reading for anyone interested in postcolonialism, and devotees of Spivak’s writing
