Presented in the form of reflective\/reflexive and theoretically innovative essays, the book explores: bodies in general and their precarious, excessive, ontologically insecure, and emotional facets; the fleshing out of contemporary necro(body)politics; and the visual-emotional politics embodied through the COVID-19 pandemic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe empirical analyses feed into contemporary IR debates on British and American politics and international relations and the Global War on Terror, while also speaking to broader and interdisciplinary, theoretical literature on bodies\/embodiment, visual politics, biopolitics, necropolitics, and affect\/emotion, and feelings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKandida\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Purnell\u003c\/strong\u003e is Assistant Professor of International Relations who has previously published on the body politics of the Global War on Terror, war (un)commemoration, and war performance and army\/artist collaboration.
