(1 other version)Laughing Matters: Theses and Discussions.Giorgio Baruchello & Ársæll Már Arnarsson - 2023 - De Gruyter.details Part 2 of Volume 3 addresses in detail the conflicts between humor and cruelty, i.e., how cruelty can be unleashed against humor and, conversely, humor can be utilized against cruelty.

Sexual Assault as Trauma: A Foucauldian Examination of Knowledge Practices in the Field of Sexual Assault Service Provision.Suzanne Egan - 2016 - Feminist Review 112 (1):95-112.details This paper examines the deployment of the concept of psychological trauma in the field of sexual assault service provision, a field in which a feminist understanding of sexual violence has achieved a position of ‘truth’. Using a Foucauldian methodological approach, the investigation centred on service provision in New South Wales, Australia, and analysis focused on the everyday practices of workers illuminated through documents collected from the field, in particular the interview texts produced from interviews with thirty sexual assault practitioners.
