The Art of Surrender by Robin Wagner-Pacifici
Explores the ritual concessions as acts of warfare, performances of submission, demonstrations of power, and representations of shifting, unstable worlds. The author considers the limits of sovereignty at conflict's end, showing how the ways we concede loss can be as important as the ways we claim victory.
Robin Wagner-Pacifici is professor of sociology at Swarthmore College. She is the author of three previous books, including The Moro Morality Play: Terrorism as Social Drama and Discourse and Destruction: The City of Philadelphia versus MOVE, both published by the University of Chicago Press.
