Praise for Usurping Suicide
‘Sometimes the depth of an economic crisis can only be fathomed when suicide, that most personal of acts, accrues political meaning and consequence. The authors bring committed insight to political suicides in our time, from Tunisia to Syntagma Square.’
Terrence McDonough, co-author of Contemporary Capitalism and its Crises
‘An original study of those moments when the act of ending one’s own life can acquire public and political significance. The authors bring a fresh approach to an old problem: why individuals choose to end their lives and what meaning the act can have for those left behind.’
Aamir R. Mufti, author of Forget English! Orientalisms and World Literatures
