Description
"Abolishing state violence is an urgent and accessible analysis of the key structures of state violence in our world today, and a clarion call to action for their abolition. Acheson argues that understanding the relationship between structures of violence and frameworks for challenging them must be on the basis of their roots in patriarchy, racism, militarism, settler colonialism, and capitalism. Abolition is transformative. It is about defunding, demilitarizing, disbanding, and divesting from current structures of violence, but also about imagining new ways to organize and care for each other and our planet, and about building new systems and cultures to sustain ourselves in a more equitable, free, and peaceful way. It shows that change is possible"--Back cover.
