It analyzes how structures and organising principles be they cultural historical legal political or spatial might encourage demand or prevent violence. It deals with the issue of scale: violence in the context of war versus violence in the context of an individual murder and provides insights into the context of war and peace ethnic and identity-based violence as well as examining issues of justice and memory.</p><p>This will be a key text and essential reference for scholars and students at all levels in Comics Studies and Cultural and Media Studies more generally. </p>
