In both cases, I am interested in how silences function to subjugate certain forms of knowledge, such as the knowledge about state terrorism, and particularly Israeli state terrorism, which are broadly unknown in both academic and political discourse.

Drazen Pehar
(Link) (Link)		IndependentCroatiaCET/CESTPolitics/international relations and philosophyI work with 'silence studies' in the area of dediscoursification. I assume that there is no canonical form of silence studies. It is my view that 'silence' is too varied and multilayered phenomenon to allow for a single theory of 'silence' either in a deconstructivist or non-deconstructivist mode. In other words: in different contexts 'silence' is a different thing, and as such irreducible to a common denominator.
