{"product_id":"thanatic-ethics","title":"Thanatic Ethics","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book emerges from \"Thanatic Ethics: The Circulation of Bodies in Migratory Spaces\", an interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary project uniting social scientists, postcolonial scholars, and artists worldwide to raise critical issues related to the death of migrants. It urgently calls for migration studies to confront the consequences of Western governments' restrictive and necropolitical migration policies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe volume introduces thanatic ethics as a moral compass—a code of conduct that re-endows migrant deaths with meaning, ensuring they are remembered and mourned. Through diverse perspectives, contributors examine how social practices, political mobilizations, and artistic and literary representations can serve dual purposes: memorializing the dead while changing the gaze of the living on the unidentified dead. Enhancing awareness in the wider community could lead to the overturning of current migration policies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThoughtfully organized into four sections, the book first explores how oceanic waters have been constructed as bordering agents—spaces of exclusion and death. The second section focuses on the politics of death, burial, and mourning, while the third confronts the fraught questions inherent to visualizing the Thanatic. The concluding section advances essential conversations about care, repair, and restitution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis essential text speaks to a diverse audience including scholars and students in migration studies, postcolonial studies, human rights, ethics, cultural studies, literature, and political science. It will also prove valuable for policymakers, human rights advocates, artists, and anyone concerned with the multi-layered aspects of migration. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of \u003ci\u003eInterventions: International Journal of Postcolonial Studies. \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55883417092440,"sku":"9781041024378","price":192.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781041024378_a38a0b53-dee6-4769-a263-0e7a144c35f9.jpg?v=1772256653","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/thanatic-ethics","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
