Sacrifice and Violence: Reflections from an Ethnography in Nepal
Lecomte-Tilouine, Marie (College de France, Paris)
This book aims to understand what sacrifice means through long-term ethnographic studies and its close relationship with power and social organisation in Nepal. Sacrifice is considered here through its constitutive core of violence and its complex relationships with legitimate violence, in order to trace its ability to persist despite disapproval.
