Bulletproof Fashion Security Emotions And The Fortress Body Barbara Sutton by Barbara Sutton 9781003326854, 1003326854 instant download after payment.

In the context of gun proliferation & persistent gun violence in the United States, a controversial security strategy has gained public attention: bulletproof fashion. In this book, Barbara Sutton examines concerns about security focusing on armored clothing & accessories for civilians. 

Available for children & adults, such ballistic products include colorful backpacks, elegant suits, sports jackets, feminine dresses, trendy vests, & medical lab coats. These products are paradigmatic of a “fashion of fear”—the practice of outfitting the body with apparel aimed at maximizing personal security. This fashion encourages the emergence of both a fortress body & an armored society

Sutton also explores the wider social factors influencing the bulletproof fashion phenomenon, including the inequalities associated with neoliberalism & the militarization of civilian life. The book sheds light on the role of emotions in relation to discourses & perceptions of security, & encourages feminist & sociological studies to pay attention to the linkages between security, bodies, & dress. It is ideal for students & scholars interested in security & gun violence, culture & politics, neoliberalism & consumption, & bodies & emotions.
