Abstract
This essay examines the relationship between the absolute victim and the victims of everyday violence. It explores the figure of the victim in the ethnological discourse, in the practice of tolerance and of humanitarian action, the politics against terror and the constant exposure to images of violence: Internet, newspapers and TV series. The author questions the consensus around the idea of a humanitarian crisis and the need of reparation as privileged frameworks in the analysis of violence. This essay offers new theoretical insights for our understanding of the victims and of contemporary violence.
