520    "Abolishing state violence is an urgent and accessible 
       analysis of the key structures of state violence in our 
       world today, and a clarion call to action for their 
       abolition. Acheson argues that understanding the 
       relationship between structures of violence and frameworks
       for challenging them must be on the basis of their roots 
       in patriarchy, racism, militarism, settler colonialism, 
       and capitalism. Abolition is transformative. It is about 
       defunding, demilitarizing, disbanding, and divesting from 
       current structures of violence, but also about imagining 
       new ways to organize and care for each other and our 
       planet, and about building new systems and cultures to 
       sustain ourselves in a more equitable, free, and peaceful 
       way. It shows that change is possible"--Back cover.
