In this influential volume, Butler examines how state and media frameworks determine which lives are seen as grievable, mournable, or worthy of protection, particularly in the context of war, occupation, and global violence. The book engages with questions of precarity, vulnerability, and ethics, drawing on contemporary conflicts and advancing Butler's ongoing critique of power and norms. Recognized as a significant contribution to political philosophy, gender studies, and critical theory, "Frames of War" extends the arguments of Butler's earlier works such as "Precarious Life.".
