RePresenting Bisexualities: Subjects and Cultures of Fluid Desire - Hardcover

Maria Pramaggiore is Assistant Professor of Film Studies at North Carolina State University.

"While we think of the crimes of the Bush-Cheney administration as lying somewhere in the past, the aggressive wars, warrantless spying, lawless imprisonment, and torture continue. This collection looks deeply into one likely way to end these crimes, namely enforcing the laws against them. Included are serious and informed voices both for and against prosecution."
-David Swanson, author of "Daybreak: Undoing the Imperial Presidency and Forming a More Perfect Union"

"If, as all the authors in this volume concede, Bush Administration violations can be prosecuted for their alleged crimes, shouldn't we, in accordance with the rule of law, proceed with such prosecutions? This, however, is just the jumping off point. This is a great book precisely because the authors clearly succeed in demonstrating the complexity and problems with each seemingly simple solution. Neither solution, prosecuting or not prosecuting, will leave the reader completely satisfied, but this is exactly the point... Using law to legalize something which cannot be legalized raises the question of what, exactly, is the role that law plays in its own subversion. The essays in this volume take a meaningful and helpful step in the direction of answering this question."-Concurring Opinions,
