"Timeless, but also timely. Ethics of Coexistence is moving, inspiring, and thought- provoking. With accessible writing, this book depicts women as agents making the best they can of their lives, and as human beings worthy of dignity and respect. There are not enough art-based or photography books foregrounding Muslim women, African women, and Indian women in this manner, while also exploring philosophical questions of photography, ethics, suffering, agency, and co-existence." --Katherine Bullock, Lecturer, Department of Political Science, University of Toronto Mississauga "In her exceptional new book, Parin Dossa expertly weaves poignant photographs with the spoken-written word in her search for social justice amid the violence, conflict, and fear she has documented for decades in Sudan, Afghanistan, India, Canada, and Kenya. Through her photographs of people and the spaces in which they engage in daily life and living, we more clearly than ever hear their voices and Dossa's provocation to think again and more deeply across boundaries and borders." --Wenona Giles, O.C.
, FRSC, Professor Emerita, Department of Anthropology and Centre for Refugee Studies, York University "Parin Dossa's Ethics of Coexistence takes the reader on a global tour of human and planetary life in order to demonstrate the notion of co-existence, respect, and harmony. The book sits against a larger backdrop both historically and politically, of colonialism, conflict, and power inequalities that have subjected, and continue to subject, vast segments of the planet to suffering. The book also celebrates the many efforts, actions, and vision from the ground up of a different planetary equation, one that works to establish global alliances, support, and recognition. Indeed, it could be said that the book ultimately acts as a hymn to such efforts." --Parvati Nair, Professor of Hispanic, Cultural and Migration Studies, Queen Mary University of London.
