Real Recognition
Real Recognition investigates the complexities of literary and social recognition with the aim of putting a fresh, cross-disciplinary spin on reader identification and social acknowledgment.

Based on this, she argues that literary texts ca...

Terrorism on Trial
A landmark sociological examination of terrorism prosecution in United States courts Rather than functioning as a final arbiter of justice, U.S. domestic courts are increasingly seen as counterterrorism tools that can incapacitate terrorists, maintain national security operations domestically, and produce certain narratives of conflict.

Nicole Nguyen advocates for a rethinking of popular understandings of political violence and its root causes, encouraging readers to co...
