Deconstructing terrorism

9/11, 7/7 and contemporary culture. Edited by Jürgen Kamm, Jürgen Kramer and Bernd Lenz. What are the principal affinities of 9/11 and 7/7 as key events for the respective nations? How can discourses characterising terrorist activities be successfully investigated and ideological/cultural (over)simplifications be convincingly deconstructed? Are there any new kinds of terrorism or terrorists being constructed? The articles attest to the variety of responses to terrorism. They also identify the challenges which terrorism poses not merely to artistic forms of (de)construction, but to public discourse in general. 247 Seiten, Leinen (Passauer Arbeiten zur Literatur- und Kulturwissenschaft; Band 11/Stutz Verlag 2013)
