“Global Assemblages provides excellent and rich
insight into a developing anthropology of the contemporary world.
The intertwining of violence, capital flows, political
fragmentation, and regimes of social and moral control are
investigated here in what must be recognized as a major
contribution to anthropological scholarship.”
Jonathan Friedman, L’ École des Hautes Études
en Sciences Sociales, Paris and Lund University,
Sweden
“This volume will give assemblages of many types a good
name—the authors are astute, varied, and at the top of their
game; the geographies do justice to the notion of global; and the
book has a core intellectual inquiry about reflexive practices that
holds together its wide-ranging essays. From transplanted kidneys
to research audit protocols, the uneasy interrelationships of
global assemblages emerge in the fleshy details of a knotted
world.”
Donna Haraway, University of California, Santa Cruz
