Globalization, Terror and the Shaming of the Nation by Jani De Silva

This book is an anthropological study of a violent encounter between a group of soldiers and 22 schoolboys in a Sinhala village in Sri Lanka. The boys were kidnapped and subsequently tortured to death.
Jani de Silva completed a BA(hons) in Political Science and went on to do a MSc and Phd in Anthropology. This manuscript is based on a Phd thesis submitted to the Department of Anthropology, London School of Economics, in 2000. She received a John D and Catherine T MacArthur post-doctoral Research and Writing-up Award in 2001. She is currently working on the nexus between globalization, violence and the local construction of masculinities in Sri Lanka.
