Helle Malmvig

Frygten lagde jeg fra mig for længe siden, da jeg var tolv, forlod den mig, jeg fortæller dig om det senere, det lover jeg, senere får du det hele at vide, men ikke endnu, lige nu skal du se tatoveringen på min arm, ‘vær modig’ står der, stukket ind i huden. Julie vokser op i et hjem i Hellerup med bøger, klassisk musik og dannelse. Udadtil en god opvækst, men bag hjemmets vægge foregår uhyrlige hændelser, der dukker op som brudstykker i voksenlivet og får hende til at flygte. Ud i nattelivet, ned til Mellemøsten, væk fra sin familie og sig selv. Glemmer jeg er en gribende roman om overgreb, svigt og erindringens utilregnelighed. Samtidig er det en fortælling om mod, ængstelse og vildskab i et moderne kvindeliv.

This new volume shows how state sovereignty is more fluid and contested than is usually appreciated within both conventional and constructivist literature. Whereas previous constructivist works have investigated the temporal contingency of state sovereignty, the spatial contingency of this concept has been neglected. This book tackles this situation, showing the reader how the meaning of state sovereignty was constituted differently in the case of the intervention in Kosovo and the case of non-intervention in Algeria in the late 1990s. This essential study clearly and concisely:takes existing constructivist and poststructuralist work on state sovereignty one step further, arguing that state sovereignty not only is open to different constructions over time, but also across space probes further into the conceptual relationships between sovereignty/ intervention, arguing that legitimations of non-intervention also can be analyzed as a practice, which gives meaning and content to the concept of state sovereigntycontributes to the emerging debate on the importance of 'methodology' in constructivist studies, turning the philosophical and meta-theoretical assumptions of constructivism and poststructuralism into an informed 'analytical strategy' guiding the book’s empirical discourse analysis.
