Description
Structural Violence: The Makings of Settler Colonial Impunity by Elena Ruíz explores the underlying mechanisms that enable social systems to perpetuate inequality and violence. A new perspective on the regenerative processes of settler colonialism has emerged, shedding light on its adaptive functions throughout history.
This study reveals how the cellular origins of metastasis, a leading cause of cancer-related death, can be seen as a metaphor for the spread of social injustice. By examining the molecular basis and mechanistic determinants of this process, Ruíz sheds new light on the ways in which power operates to maintain systems of oppression.
Published in 2024, Structural Violence is a thought-provoking analysis that challenges readers to consider the interconnectedness of biological and social processes. This book will be of interest to scholars and researchers in philosophy, ethics, politics, sociology, and ethnic studies.
