Unruly Speech: Displacement and the Politics of Transgression Witteborn Saskia
Unruly Speech explores how Uyghurs in China and in the diaspora transgress sociopolitical limits with unruly communication practices in a quest for change. Featuring the voices of Uyghurs from three continents, Unruly Speech analyzes the discursive and material force of place names, social media, surveillance, and the link between witnessing and the discourse on human rights. Drawing on research in China, the United States, and Germany, Saskia Witteborn situates her study against the backdrop of displacement and shows how naming practices and witness accounts become potent ways of resistance in everyday interactions and in global activism.
The rich ethnographic study will appeal to audiences interested in migration and displacement, language and The book provides a granular view of disruptive communication: its global political moorings and socio-technical control.
