"The book explicitly discusses the wide array of debates
centered around the theme of nationalism and therefore acts as a
work that provides a seminal undersatnding of the issue of
nationalism." International Journal of Contemporary
Sociology
"This is a wonderful entry point for students and faculty trying
to get a grip on the often slippery but politically fraught idea,
and practice, of nationalism. Puri puts earlier discussions of
nationalism into a post-September 11 focus. Moreover, she brings
the ongoing debates about the nature and uses of nationalism up to
date by showing how central to nationalism are presumptions about
women, and sexuality." – Cynthia Enloe, Clark
University
"This is a thoughtful introduction to the field of nationalism. It successfully analyzes the gendered and sexual dimensions of nationalist projects, and contextualizes them within global, economic, and political relations of power during the colonial period and the present day." – Nira Yuval-Davis, University of East London
