"This mixture of the empirical and the theoretical as well as the
emphasis on globalization as an ambivalent situation of flow and
closure are the main strengths of this volume and as such it serves
as a useful introduction to the topic, not least to those are put
off by the overly theoretical approaches usually associated with
the subject matter." John Walliss, Bookends
"The immense merit of this volume to readers who are not steeped
in the debates about globalization is that it makes the subject
relevant to concerns widely shared in the world today. It is also
easily comprehensible, with its, on the whole, enlightening
case-studies." Patrick Chabal, International Affairs
" With a rich confluence of diverse empirical material with social theory, the writers in this volume have made a strong and timely anthology for those interested in globalization or identity studies" Matthew Kurtz, University of Alaska Anchorage
