Abstract

Veena Das and Didier Fassin, eds. Veena Das's chapter, "Knowledge", sets the methodological tone (Cavell meets Foucault), in which what counts or is constructed as knowledge is fluid, contextual, and relational. This "lexicon for dark times" in fact could be read as an anti-lexicon. [Extracted from the article]
