    头颅,作为生命本源的象征,自古以来在人类宗教、农业、政治等社会生活中扮演着极为重要的角色。而所谓“头颅”叙事,笔者意指中国古典文学中,一类在主要情节及人物上与“头颅”及其变体(如髑髅)相关,且大体怪诞不经、出乎寻常的作品。本文的研究以唐代文学中的“头颅”叙事为中心,力求整理、归纳、分析此类作品在主题内容及叙事技法上的特征与风貌。开篇,全面耙梳、探讨“头颅”叙事在《山海经》及汉魏六朝文学中的滥觞、发展与衍变,为唐代文学中不同类型的“头颅”叙事溯源。其次,依内容分类,重点考察唐代文学中两类分属政治与动物主题的“头颅”叙事作品。其中,针对政治主题,围绕“补史之用”,分析作者如何借恐怖血腥之“头颅”,书写、补充、揭示唐朝各重大政治事变中的残忍与冷酷;而针对动物主题,聚焦“警世之用”,探讨诸如动物借“头颅诉冤”、凭“髑髅幻形”等诡奇描绘,如何寄寓佛教戒杀护生、批淫戒色等警世思想。最后,考察唐代“头颅”叙事的叙事技法与后世发展。先从谋篇布局、塑造人物、寄寓主题三方面对唐代“头颅”叙事中“头颅”物象的叙事功能进行归纳,其次以明代小说《西游记》为例,探讨“头颅”叙事于主题及技法上在唐后的发展与变化。 Heads, as the symbol of essential vitality, have played a significant role in various aspects of human society such as religion, agriculture, politics, and more throughout history. “Head Narration”, as defined by the author, refers to narrative works in Classical Chinese Literature that centre around heads or their variations such as skulls when developing plots or portraying characters and feature unexpected characteristics. This paper will focus on discussing the “Head” Narration in Tang Dynasty Literature, aiming to categorize, analyze and conclude the characteristics of the works relating to their themes and narrative techniques. To begin with, the paper thoroughly examines the origin, development, and variation of the “Head” narration in the Classic of Mountains and Seas 山海经, as well as in the Han, Wei, and Six Dynasties Literature, so as to trace back the source and root of different “Head” narrations in Tang literature. Next, the paper focuses on examining the “Head” narration in Tang literature belonging to the themes of politics and animals respectively. To study the “Head” narrations belonging to the political theme, the paper highlights their effectiveness in serving as a supplementary account to the historical records, by analyzing how their authors would portray the brutal impact of various political incidents through the vivid writing of terrifying “head” narratives. And to study the “Head” narrations belonging to the animal theme, the paper emphasizes their morally educational purposes, discussing how the authors would transmit Buddhist values and beliefs such as abstaining from killing and sexual conduct through the storytelling of animals appealing with heads or animals transforming into human with skulls. Finally, the paper looks into the narrative techniques and the impact of the “Head” narration in Tang literature. The paper explores the narrative function of the image of “heads” from three aspects: structuring the narratives, portraying the characters, and conveying the moral values. And the paper ends with an analysis of the “Head” narration in Journey to the West 西游记 which is selected as one of the representatives of the “Head” narration in post-Tang literature.

    Authors: Zhou,Yalin;

    This dissertation focuses on Xunzi’s moral concern for yu 欲 (desire) with three primary aims: (1) to conceptualize Xunzi’s notion of yu; (2) to investigate and add a new understanding of what Xunzi conceives as the badness in uncultivated desires and the goodness in cultivated desires; (3) and to illustrate the embodied and sociocultural approaches/dimensions of rituals transforming problematic inborn desires and generating moral desires. For the first aim, I argue that Xunzi’s notion of yu could be conceived as a feeling that it is imperative or even compulsive to pursue something on the expectation that doing so will yield pleasure for the desirer. One’s pleasure-based liking is not merely painted by joy but a configuration of the more variable affective experiences, including the feeling of an 安 (security; at ease) and the feeling of comfort in fortunes and anxiety in misfortunes, and involves the higher and lower pleasures; and the potent force of wanting is normatively grounded in the general goal of living a truly happy life. For the second aim, while most readers explain the badness of inborn desires with problematic objects and chaotic social consequences, I propose that Xunzi also has another point in mind: the felt quality of desires. The leading felt quality of desires could be distinguished by the qing 情 (emotions; feelings) that go along with it because Xunzi believes that desires are responses of qing, with the appearance of qing being fundamentally associated with qi 氣 (energy substance) and bodily experiences. The felt quality of uncultivated desires is bad in that they feel so abrupt, uncontrollable, and inconsistent that they not only create a kind of internal misery and ordinary feelings of worry for the desirer but also make the desirer callous of the interests of others. The bad felt quality is primarily rooted in its corrupted and disordered embodied affective experience. By comparison, cultivated desires feel better because they feel smooth, controllable, consistent, and thereby more enjoyable. For the third aim, compared with a large volume of Xunzi scholarship that has described the xin 心 (heart-mind) as a decisive factor in cultivating an affective love for morality and Dao, the less mindful and less individualistic approaches of desire and desire transformation have not being illustrated sufficiently. The embodied and the sociocultural perspectives could supplement or complement some prior works on how a bad-natured self could develop a love for Dao and propriety. One main argument is that for Xunzi, it is possible to feel the higher pleasure of propriety and Dao, with its content being primarily sensory or bodily. The approach is to give a proper pattern to the feelings of desire pertaining to one’s natural and common desires. Specifically, by practicing rituals as bodily techniques and physiological guides in everyday living (e.g., eating, dressing, dwelling), one is led to feel the heightened pleasure of propriety embedded in an appropriate and beautiful pattern of desiring and enjoying multiple humane goods. In this process, one’s sensory perceptions and body are attuned and improved to a higher level so that the perverted and disordered appearances of yu-related feelings and the originally abrupt and irregular manner of acting/performing become gradually disassociated with pleasure. To complement some current discussions of moral deliberation as a crucial approach for desire transformation, this dissertation also argues that it is essential to consider the sociocultural self, namely, seeing oneself as a bearer of specific roles in a larger community characterized by role-based rituals and division. By the approach of habituating in a ritualized community (zhu cuo xi su 注错習俗), one is led to develop and construct a sociocultural self, and thereby understand the otherwise uninterpreted desires from a quasi-moral perspective, focus on the specified interests in accord with one’s social role, and acquire the taste/ability to have one’s feeling for security and honor anchored in morality and the Dao.

    Authors: Al-Mehraaj Binte Mohamed Rahim;

    This paper studies the representations of lower-caste Tamil women in Malaya and Singapore and how they were implicated in gender politics from the late nineteenth century up until the 1990s postwar period. It reveals how the introduction of ‘new patriarchy’ by Indian reformists as an answer to resolve the Women’s Question of the nineteenth century set the path for the ways lower-caste women’s identities were to be constructed for most of the colonial period, implicating them in various kinds of gender politics that predicated sexuality and domesticity as preliminary sites of struggle. Drawing on critical discourse analysis of women’s sexuality, domesticity and gender roles, the thesis argues that the perceived identities of lower-caste Tamil women of Singapore and Malaya – that consisted largely of sexual governance and gender politicisation – were distinctly shaped by transnational politics of caste, class, race and nationalist politics stoking particular systems of patriarchy that emerged over the period of the nineteenth century. This not only led to the production of distorted and definitive constructs of lower-caste Tamil women in colonial, national and cultural consciousness, but also worked to exclude the lower-caste Tamil women from elite and upper-caste models of womanhood over the course of the colonial period. Having been marginalised, these women were conferred the opportunity to attain cultural superiority and ideological strength and thereby regain respectability during instances of embracing domestic femininity following the period of the 1930s. The study attempts to provide a multifarious account of the representations of Tamil women by threading perspectives of colonial officials, European commentators, Indian reformists and nationalists, journalists, mercenaries and novelists and thus digs deep into productions of knowledge that reveal identity constructions that took place through gender politicisation. The thesis makes a timely contribution to the scholarship on the history of Tamil women in British Malaya and Singapore and demonstrates the potential of using gender as a category of analysis in South Asian diaspora studies.

    Authors: Nurshahiylia Erdina Binte Sidin;

    This MA thesis, Iblis Never Bows & Other Stories, consists of a collection of six short stories and an exegesis detailing my research and writing process. The stories attempt to show the lived experiences of Malay women in a new light and to reposition them in spaces where the familiar is defamiliarized. The best kind of short story feels like a magic trick, like a rug being pulled out from under you in the best way possible. This optical illusion is something that I hope to at least impart a little of in my works. Above all, I am also fascinated by people who don’t do as they’re told and who don’t feel as they’re supposed to. They excite me. I am interested in figures that occupy indeterminate statuses and the way they negotiate power, in the “perennial underdogs”, unruly women with messy, nasty, petty feelings, those who both adhere to authority and at the same time attempt to uncover and produce sites of resistance, in writing itself as a site of resistance by shifting the lens to previously underrepresented groups. I can only hope then that my writing, even if it is in the smallest of ways, shifts the reader’s attention towards what is often obscured and concealed on the margins, a reorientation of one’s viewpoint towards what has otherwise been cast aside. Through my writing and exegesis, I also wish to explore the ways stories can offer productive and heterogenous potentials by pulling readers into worlds and subjectivities that they might have otherwise been disinterested in.

    Authors: Chow, Nicholas Yiheng;

    This paper delves into an exploration of sexual consent, particularly its complexities within the context of power dynamics and ethical considerations. It investigates how the expression of consent shapes sexual relationships, examining its manifestations, limitations, and ambiguities. The study is guided by the recognition that the concept of consent is far from straightforward, and that its understanding is muddled by societal norms, linguistic nuances, and power imbalances. The paper provides a response to the #MeToo movement and the evolving discourse surrounding sexual consent in instances of sexual assault, abuse, and harassment. The analysis centers on the portrayal of sexual relationships in three films: The Piano Teacher, Elle, and Tár. These films challenge not only traditional depictions of sexual dynamics but also our understanding of consent. Through these cinematic narratives, the thesis aims to mirror real-life complexities, presenting scenarios that push boundaries and highlight the intersection of ethics, consent, and power. This paper aims to shed light on the multifaceted nature of sexual consent, emphasizing its role as a dynamic force that shapes social relations and especially intimate relationships. By delving into the complexities depicted in films and paralleling them with real-world cases, the research contributes to a more nuanced understanding of consent's intricacies and implications.

    Authors: Ting, Chun Chun;

    This project aims to study contemporary Asian cities by examining how their urban spaces are represented culturally and contested politically. As Asia undergoes a rapid process of urbanization and gentrification, the claims on urban space have been multiplying. Whether it is the capitalist growth machine, common people’s livelihoods and homes, symbols of national belonging or local identification, these claims hinge on different interpretations of urban space. The competition over space has subsequently turned urban planning into a highly contested political question and made the city a new political site for a dynamic struggle over rights, agency, and affectivity. My project focuses on such struggles because they are some of the most significant forces shaping our urban future. In this study, I probe into various social movements resisting urban demolition to consider the different claims to space and discourses on urban development. In addition, I look at the representations of urban space in art, literature, and popular culture to investigate how the artistic imagination influences the collective consciousness and attitude toward the city. I specifically focus on moments when art takes a role in social movements to expound on how the struggles are not only about access to space but also about identity, memory, and rights.

    Authors: Goh, Nigel Kuan Long;

    This essay examines how the unique Oceanic temporality of Jules Verne’s Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Seas reflects broader changes in the hermeneutics of Oceanic time in the late 19th century. By unraveling time-discipline in the context of Paul Glennie & Nigel Thrift, I argue that Oceanic stasis reveals the mechanisms through which its practices proliferate. I demonstrate, by looking across several of the novel’s key episodes and its characterisation, that Verne sought to reflect three distinct concerns about multiple time-disciplines of the late 19th century in his writing. These were the proliferation of time-sense, the temporal asymmetry of capitalism, and the intellectual subjugation of Oceanic spaces. Indeed, by contextualising this in a period of profound technological change, I will analyse how Verne demonstrates these themes amid the weakening temporal stasis of the Ocean.

    Authors: Lim, Chong-Ming;

    In public discourse, activists are often criticized for directing their acts of political resistance against this or that specific target. Underlying these criticisms appears to be a strongly held, though underarticulated, intuitive moral judgment that some targets are legitimate whereas others are not. Little philosophical attention has been paid to this issue. My primary aim is to address this neglect. I specify a central part of this intuitive judgment – centering on persons and activities – and argue that there is a principled way to differentiate between legitimate and illegitimate targets. This specification relies on a novel conception of political resistance, which focuses on its defensive rather than communicative aspect. I then extend the idea of forfeiture to argue that acts of political resistance are correctly directed when they are aimed at those activities of liable persons that cause injustice. My discussion contributes to vindicating our intuitive judgments about several controversial cases of political resistance.

    Authors: 方一然 Fang, Yiran;

    头颅,作为生命本源的象征,自古以来在人类宗教、农业、政治等社会生活中扮演着极为重要的角色。而所谓“头颅”叙事,笔者意指中国古典文学中,一类在主要情节及人物上与“头颅”及其变体(如髑髅)相关,且大体怪诞不经、出乎寻常的作品。本文的研究以唐代文学中的“头颅”叙事为中心,力求整理、归纳、分析此类作品在主题内容及叙事技法上的特征与风貌。开篇,全面耙梳、探讨“头颅”叙事在《山海经》及汉魏六朝文学中的滥觞、发展与衍变,为唐代文学中不同类型的“头颅”叙事溯源。其次,依内容分类,重点考察唐代文学中两类分属政治与动物主题的“头颅”叙事作品。其中,针对政治主题,围绕“补史之用”,分析作者如何借恐怖血腥之“头颅”,书写、补充、揭示唐朝各重大政治事变中的残忍与冷酷;而针对动物主题,聚焦“警世之用”,探讨诸如动物借“头颅诉冤”、凭“髑髅幻形”等诡奇描绘,如何寄寓佛教戒杀护生、批淫戒色等警世思想。最后,考察唐代“头颅”叙事的叙事技法与后世发展。先从谋篇布局、塑造人物、寄寓主题三方面对唐代“头颅”叙事中“头颅”物象的叙事功能进行归纳,其次以明代小说《西游记》为例,探讨“头颅”叙事于主题及技法上在唐后的发展与变化。 Heads, as the symbol of essential vitality, have played a significant role in various aspects of human society such as religion, agriculture, politics, and more throughout history. “Head Narration”, as defined by the author, refers to narrative works in Classical Chinese Literature that centre around heads or their variations such as skulls when developing plots or portraying characters and feature unexpected characteristics. This paper will focus on discussing the “Head” Narration in Tang Dynasty Literature, aiming to categorize, analyze and conclude the characteristics of the works relating to their themes and narrative techniques. To begin with, the paper thoroughly examines the origin, development, and variation of the “Head” narration in the Classic of Mountains and Seas 山海经, as well as in the Han, Wei, and Six Dynasties Literature, so as to trace back the source and root of different “Head” narrations in Tang literature. Next, the paper focuses on examining the “Head” narration in Tang literature belonging to the themes of politics and animals respectively. To study the “Head” narrations belonging to the political theme, the paper highlights their effectiveness in serving as a supplementary account to the historical records, by analyzing how their authors would portray the brutal impact of various political incidents through the vivid writing of terrifying “head” narratives. And to study the “Head” narrations belonging to the animal theme, the paper emphasizes their morally educational purposes, discussing how the authors would transmit Buddhist values and beliefs such as abstaining from killing and sexual conduct through the storytelling of animals appealing with heads or animals transforming into human with skulls. Finally, the paper looks into the narrative techniques and the impact of the “Head” narration in Tang literature. The paper explores the narrative function of the image of “heads” from three aspects: structuring the narratives, portraying the characters, and conveying the moral values. And the paper ends with an analysis of the “Head” narration in Journey to the West 西游记 which is selected as one of the representatives of the “Head” narration in post-Tang literature.

    Authors: Zhou,Yalin;

    This dissertation focuses on Xunzi’s moral concern for yu 欲 (desire) with three primary aims: (1) to conceptualize Xunzi’s notion of yu; (2) to investigate and add a new understanding of what Xunzi conceives as the badness in uncultivated desires and the goodness in cultivated desires; (3) and to illustrate the embodied and sociocultural approaches/dimensions of rituals transforming problematic inborn desires and generating moral desires. For the first aim, I argue that Xunzi’s notion of yu could be conceived as a feeling that it is imperative or even compulsive to pursue something on the expectation that doing so will yield pleasure for the desirer. One’s pleasure-based liking is not merely painted by joy but a configuration of the more variable affective experiences, including the feeling of an 安 (security; at ease) and the feeling of comfort in fortunes and anxiety in misfortunes, and involves the higher and lower pleasures; and the potent force of wanting is normatively grounded in the general goal of living a truly happy life. For the second aim, while most readers explain the badness of inborn desires with problematic objects and chaotic social consequences, I propose that Xunzi also has another point in mind: the felt quality of desires. The leading felt quality of desires could be distinguished by the qing 情 (emotions; feelings) that go along with it because Xunzi believes that desires are responses of qing, with the appearance of qing being fundamentally associated with qi 氣 (energy substance) and bodily experiences. The felt quality of uncultivated desires is bad in that they feel so abrupt, uncontrollable, and inconsistent that they not only create a kind of internal misery and ordinary feelings of worry for the desirer but also make the desirer callous of the interests of others. The bad felt quality is primarily rooted in its corrupted and disordered embodied affective experience. By comparison, cultivated desires feel better because they feel smooth, controllable, consistent, and thereby more enjoyable. For the third aim, compared with a large volume of Xunzi scholarship that has described the xin 心 (heart-mind) as a decisive factor in cultivating an affective love for morality and Dao, the less mindful and less individualistic approaches of desire and desire transformation have not being illustrated sufficiently. The embodied and the sociocultural perspectives could supplement or complement some prior works on how a bad-natured self could develop a love for Dao and propriety. One main argument is that for Xunzi, it is possible to feel the higher pleasure of propriety and Dao, with its content being primarily sensory or bodily. The approach is to give a proper pattern to the feelings of desire pertaining to one’s natural and common desires. Specifically, by practicing rituals as bodily techniques and physiological guides in everyday living (e.g., eating, dressing, dwelling), one is led to feel the heightened pleasure of propriety embedded in an appropriate and beautiful pattern of desiring and enjoying multiple humane goods. In this process, one’s sensory perceptions and body are attuned and improved to a higher level so that the perverted and disordered appearances of yu-related feelings and the originally abrupt and irregular manner of acting/performing become gradually disassociated with pleasure. To complement some current discussions of moral deliberation as a crucial approach for desire transformation, this dissertation also argues that it is essential to consider the sociocultural self, namely, seeing oneself as a bearer of specific roles in a larger community characterized by role-based rituals and division. By the approach of habituating in a ritualized community (zhu cuo xi su 注错習俗), one is led to develop and construct a sociocultural self, and thereby understand the otherwise uninterpreted desires from a quasi-moral perspective, focus on the specified interests in accord with one’s social role, and acquire the taste/ability to have one’s feeling for security and honor anchored in morality and the Dao.

    Authors: Al-Mehraaj Binte Mohamed Rahim;

    This paper studies the representations of lower-caste Tamil women in Malaya and Singapore and how they were implicated in gender politics from the late nineteenth century up until the 1990s postwar period. It reveals how the introduction of ‘new patriarchy’ by Indian reformists as an answer to resolve the Women’s Question of the nineteenth century set the path for the ways lower-caste women’s identities were to be constructed for most of the colonial period, implicating them in various kinds of gender politics that predicated sexuality and domesticity as preliminary sites of struggle. Drawing on critical discourse analysis of women’s sexuality, domesticity and gender roles, the thesis argues that the perceived identities of lower-caste Tamil women of Singapore and Malaya – that consisted largely of sexual governance and gender politicisation – were distinctly shaped by transnational politics of caste, class, race and nationalist politics stoking particular systems of patriarchy that emerged over the period of the nineteenth century. This not only led to the production of distorted and definitive constructs of lower-caste Tamil women in colonial, national and cultural consciousness, but also worked to exclude the lower-caste Tamil women from elite and upper-caste models of womanhood over the course of the colonial period. Having been marginalised, these women were conferred the opportunity to attain cultural superiority and ideological strength and thereby regain respectability during instances of embracing domestic femininity following the period of the 1930s. The study attempts to provide a multifarious account of the representations of Tamil women by threading perspectives of colonial officials, European commentators, Indian reformists and nationalists, journalists, mercenaries and novelists and thus digs deep into productions of knowledge that reveal identity constructions that took place through gender politicisation. The thesis makes a timely contribution to the scholarship on the history of Tamil women in British Malaya and Singapore and demonstrates the potential of using gender as a category of analysis in South Asian diaspora studies.

    Authors: Nurshahiylia Erdina Binte Sidin;

    This MA thesis, Iblis Never Bows & Other Stories, consists of a collection of six short stories and an exegesis detailing my research and writing process. The stories attempt to show the lived experiences of Malay women in a new light and to reposition them in spaces where the familiar is defamiliarized. The best kind of short story feels like a magic trick, like a rug being pulled out from under you in the best way possible. This optical illusion is something that I hope to at least impart a little of in my works. Above all, I am also fascinated by people who don’t do as they’re told and who don’t feel as they’re supposed to. They excite me. I am interested in figures that occupy indeterminate statuses and the way they negotiate power, in the “perennial underdogs”, unruly women with messy, nasty, petty feelings, those who both adhere to authority and at the same time attempt to uncover and produce sites of resistance, in writing itself as a site of resistance by shifting the lens to previously underrepresented groups. I can only hope then that my writing, even if it is in the smallest of ways, shifts the reader’s attention towards what is often obscured and concealed on the margins, a reorientation of one’s viewpoint towards what has otherwise been cast aside. Through my writing and exegesis, I also wish to explore the ways stories can offer productive and heterogenous potentials by pulling readers into worlds and subjectivities that they might have otherwise been disinterested in.

    Authors: Chow, Nicholas Yiheng;

    This paper delves into an exploration of sexual consent, particularly its complexities within the context of power dynamics and ethical considerations. It investigates how the expression of consent shapes sexual relationships, examining its manifestations, limitations, and ambiguities. The study is guided by the recognition that the concept of consent is far from straightforward, and that its understanding is muddled by societal norms, linguistic nuances, and power imbalances. The paper provides a response to the #MeToo movement and the evolving discourse surrounding sexual consent in instances of sexual assault, abuse, and harassment. The analysis centers on the portrayal of sexual relationships in three films: The Piano Teacher, Elle, and Tár. These films challenge not only traditional depictions of sexual dynamics but also our understanding of consent. Through these cinematic narratives, the thesis aims to mirror real-life complexities, presenting scenarios that push boundaries and highlight the intersection of ethics, consent, and power. This paper aims to shed light on the multifaceted nature of sexual consent, emphasizing its role as a dynamic force that shapes social relations and especially intimate relationships. By delving into the complexities depicted in films and paralleling them with real-world cases, the research contributes to a more nuanced understanding of consent's intricacies and implications.

    Authors: Ting, Chun Chun;

    This project aims to study contemporary Asian cities by examining how their urban spaces are represented culturally and contested politically. As Asia undergoes a rapid process of urbanization and gentrification, the claims on urban space have been multiplying. Whether it is the capitalist growth machine, common people’s livelihoods and homes, symbols of national belonging or local identification, these claims hinge on different interpretations of urban space. The competition over space has subsequently turned urban planning into a highly contested political question and made the city a new political site for a dynamic struggle over rights, agency, and affectivity. My project focuses on such struggles because they are some of the most significant forces shaping our urban future. In this study, I probe into various social movements resisting urban demolition to consider the different claims to space and discourses on urban development. In addition, I look at the representations of urban space in art, literature, and popular culture to investigate how the artistic imagination influences the collective consciousness and attitude toward the city. I specifically focus on moments when art takes a role in social movements to expound on how the struggles are not only about access to space but also about identity, memory, and rights.

    Authors: Goh, Nigel Kuan Long;

    This essay examines how the unique Oceanic temporality of Jules Verne’s Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Seas reflects broader changes in the hermeneutics of Oceanic time in the late 19th century. By unraveling time-discipline in the context of Paul Glennie & Nigel Thrift, I argue that Oceanic stasis reveals the mechanisms through which its practices proliferate. I demonstrate, by looking across several of the novel’s key episodes and its characterisation, that Verne sought to reflect three distinct concerns about multiple time-disciplines of the late 19th century in his writing. These were the proliferation of time-sense, the temporal asymmetry of capitalism, and the intellectual subjugation of Oceanic spaces. Indeed, by contextualising this in a period of profound technological change, I will analyse how Verne demonstrates these themes amid the weakening temporal stasis of the Ocean.

    Authors: Lim, Chong-Ming;

    In public discourse, activists are often criticized for directing their acts of political resistance against this or that specific target. Underlying these criticisms appears to be a strongly held, though underarticulated, intuitive moral judgment that some targets are legitimate whereas others are not. Little philosophical attention has been paid to this issue. My primary aim is to address this neglect. I specify a central part of this intuitive judgment – centering on persons and activities – and argue that there is a principled way to differentiate between legitimate and illegitimate targets. This specification relies on a novel conception of political resistance, which focuses on its defensive rather than communicative aspect. I then extend the idea of forfeiture to argue that acts of political resistance are correctly directed when they are aimed at those activities of liable persons that cause injustice. My discussion contributes to vindicating our intuitive judgments about several controversial cases of political resistance.
