Isaias Rojas-Perez explores the lives and political engagement of elderly Quechua mothers as they attempt to mourn and seek recognition for their kin. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOf the estimated 16,000 Peruvians disappeared during the conflict, only the bodies of 3,202 victims have been located, and only 1,833 identified. The rest remain unknown or unfound, scattered across the country and often shattered beyond recognition. Rojas-Perez examines how, in the face of the state's failure to account for their missing dead, the mothers rearrange senses of community, belonging, authority, and the human to bring the disappeared back into being through everyday practices of mourning and memorialization. \u003ci\u003eMourning Remains\u003c\/i\u003e reveals how collective mourning becomes a political escape from the state's project of governing past death and how the dead can help secure the future of the body politic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Isaias Rojas-Perez\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1503602621\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781503602625\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2018","brand":"Isaias Rojas-Perez","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44124287795455,"sku":"9781503602625","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c64933e4-6cf6-4d76-ac31-b58c97b32de9.jpg?v=1687435866","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mourning-remains-isaias-rojas-perez-9781503602625","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
