Terrorism and the Politics of Naming Names are not objective they accrue - photo 1
Terrorism and the Politics of Naming
Names are not objective, they accrue subjective associations. For example 'Terrorist' has a very different connotation to 'Freedom-fighter'.
This volume assesses the nature, power, role and function of names in global politics and the international media. It seeks the truth beneath the names assigned in an effort to remove the obscurity created by the power of 'the politics of naming' to the reality of the situation. Taking examples from Al-Qaeda, Russia's demonisation of the Chechens, naming in the Israeli-Palestine conflict and other important contemporary debates, Terrorism and the Politics of Naming makes a substantial contribution towards elucidating the power of naming in the discourse of conflict.
This book was previously published as a special issue of Third World Quarterly .
Michael Bhatia is at the Department of Politics and International Relations at the University of Oxford.
