Book Synopsis Hypersexuality and Headscarves by : Damani J. Partridge
Book excerpt: The author explores citizenship and exclusion in Germany since the fall of the Berlin Wall. He considers cases which regularly provoke violence against those perceived to be different, such as: the situation of Vietnamese guest workers in the former East Germany; images of hypersexualized black bodies reproduced in popular culture and intimate relationships; debates about the use of the headscarf by Muslim students and teachers.
