On violence and on violence against women w/ Jacqueline Rose

Jacqueline Rose joins PTO to talk about her new book, On Violence
and on Violence against Women. We discussed how psychoanalysis can
help us grasp the mental states that make male violence possible,
where Jacqueline parts company with the radical feminist
perspectives of Catharine MacKinnon and Andrea Dworkin, and how the
experience of trans women illuminates more broadly the nature of
male violence against women. Finally, we talked about the violent
history of South Africa - from the the colonial and apartheid eras
up to the present day.
