摘要：The intersection of gender with issues of political violence and subjectivity
formation is a crucial and critical site of thought both for feminist theory and for
anthropology. It is through a plunge into the ordinary of everyday lives that
Veena Das, across her masterly work, has thought the interlinking of gender
and violence, as well as the potential modes of recovery for the subject who
re-becomes. She has thereby brought to anthropology and gender theory
attentiveness to lived experience that dislocates oppositions of
victim/perpetrator and agency/oppression. And it is by acknowledging the
subject as simultaneously powerful and vulnerable that her thought reveals
the richness of the collective.
