This paper is an attempt to develop a notion of violence based on the ability to wound slowly. It starts by exploring everyday events in a strangulated West Bank site struggling with Israel's colonisation and settlement policies, thus painting a nuanced picture on how slowness and slow proceedings wound through unspectacular events and mundane spatialisations. The spatially manifold picture of “slow wounding” is thus offered, one that not only helps in showing how ordinary spaces and unspectacular events can wound, but that also forces us to ask how wounding through slowness becomes possible in the first place. In the latter regard, it is shown how the power of slowness remains embedded in what consists of our fundamental exposure to a wound of living. Such exposure doesn't merely name the woundedness of life to power, but also the woundedness of power itself. On the one hand, slow wounding is enabled by the woundedness, while on the other hand it is fundamentally limited by it. While this ambiguity is shown to unfold in the inherent incapacity of power to ever fully force Palestinian lives under the established orders of governing, most notably it unearths the way in which particular ways of wounding are complexly entwined around life's incurable proneness to a wound – to a wound of being a living being.

巴勒斯坦缓慢伤人的不起眼空间

本文试图发展一种基于缓慢受伤能力的暴力概念。它首先探索与以色列的殖民和定居政策作斗争的约旦河西岸遗址的日常事件，从而描绘了一幅微妙的画面，描绘了缓慢和缓慢的程序如何通过平淡无奇的事件和平凡的空间化来缠绕。因此，提供了“缓慢伤害”的空间多样性画面，不仅有助于展示普通空间和不起眼的事件如何造成伤害，而且还迫使我们首先思考如何通过缓慢而造成伤害成为可能。在后一方面，它表明了缓慢的力量是如何嵌入在我们对生活创伤的基本暴露中的。这种暴露不仅将生命的伤害命名为权力，还有权力本身的伤害。一方面，慢伤是由伤造成的，另一方面，它从根本上受到伤的限制。虽然这种模糊性表现在权力固有的无能，无法完全强迫巴勒斯坦人生活在既定的统治秩序下，但最值得注意的是，它揭示了特定的伤害方式与生活无法治愈的创伤倾向复杂地交织在一起——作为一个生物的伤口。
