Puar's Terrorist Assemblages remains a significant queer theory text, examining how sexuality, race, gender, nation, class, and ethnicity are realigning in relation to contemporary forces of securitization, counterterrorism, and nationalism. Homonationalism, a fusing of homosexuality to U.S. pro-war, pro-imperialist agendas, is here to stay. Puar's analyses of feminist and queer responses to the Abu Ghraib photographs, the decriminalization of sodomy, and the profiling of Sikh Americans and South Asian diasporic queers are reflective of the dynamics saturating power, sexuality, race, and politics today. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e                                                            \u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 392 pages\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 08 December 2017\u003cbr\u003e                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Duke University Press\u003cbr\u003e                          \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e Tenth Anniversary Expanded Edition   Ten years on,Jasbir K. Puar's groundbreaking work, \"Terrorist Assemblages,\" remains a seminal text in queer theory, shaping discussions across political landscapes, activist projects, and scholarly pursuits. Puar's analysis reveals how configurations of sexuality, race, gender, nation, class, and ethnicity are being realigned in response to contemporary forces of securitization, counterterrorism, and nationalism. She explores how liberal politics incorporate certain queer subjects into the fold of the nation-state, transforming them from figures of death to subjects associated with life and productivity. However, this inclusion is contingent upon the production of populations of Orientalized terrorist bodies. Puar introduces the concept of homonationalism, a fusion of homosexuality with U.S. pro-war and pro-imperialist agendas, as a concept and tool of biopolitical management. Her incisive analyses of feminist and queer responses to the Abu Ghraib photographs, the decriminalization of sodomy in the aftermath of the Patriot Act, and the profiling of Sikh Americans and South Asian diasporic queers are not isolated incidents but rather reflect the dynamics that permeate power, sexuality, race, and politics today. This Tenth Anniversary Expanded Edition features a new foreword by Tavia Nyongo and a postscript by Puar titled \"Homonationalism in Trump Times.\" Nyongo and Puar contextualize the book within the current political moment while revisiting its original questions to underscore the continued relevance and urgency of Puar's interventions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 586g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 232 x 159 x 21 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780822371502                            \u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: Anniversary, Tenth Anniversary Edition                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jasbir K.
