Rövid leírás:
In Intimacies of Violence, Nadine Shaanta Murshid demonstrates how transnational middle-class Bangladeshi women personally embody structural violence to shed light on the ways in which violence is produced, perpetuated, and resisted. As the first book to examine the private lives of Bangladeshi migrant women, this work allows academics, policymakers, and practitioners who work with migrant communities and immigration policy to understand the complex ways in which immigrant lives are structured by social systems.

In Intimacies of Violence, Nadine Shaanta Murshid demonstrates how transnational middle-class Bangladeshi women personally embody structural violence to shed light on the ways in which violence is produced, perpetuated, and resisted. Transnational Bangladeshi women are individuals who occupy space in both the United States and Bangladesh, living bilocating yet bordered lives.
Murshid forwards four broad arguments. First, a transnational feminist approach documents the "shock of arrival" to provide an examination of how social locations and associated status impact the intimate economies in which women experience inequities related to love, sex, and desire. Second, drawing on theories from social work, transnational feminism, Bangladesh studies, and migration studies, the book shows how social norms produced at the familial level serve to link the structural and the intimate. Third, the book illustrates how nationalist narratives about Bangladesh's history of wartime rape inform women's construction of violence. Finally, the institutions of home, immigration, and the criminal legal system are implicated as sites of violence for transnational Bangladeshi women.
As the first book to exclusively examine the private lives of transnational Bangladeshi women in the United States, Intimacies of Violence allows ... academics, policymakers, and practitioners who work with migrant communities and immigration policy to understand the complex ways in which immigrant lives are structured by social systems.
Intimacies of Violence is a significant contribution to feminist scholarship, especially on Bangladeshi middle class Muslims, and South Asian studies, shedding light on a topic often silenced within Bangladeshi communities. This book deserves a wide readership, not only among academics but also among Bangladeshi families, guardians, and community leaders. If we are to address IPV meaningfully, we must first allow victims to speak without fear or stigma-and Murshid's work is a step toward that goal.
