This is an excellent volume . . . [that] offers major theoretical and ethnographic insights not just with reference to neoliberal processes but also to the general understanding of state transformations . . . The overall theme of the book - the importance of bringing class back into anthropological concerns - and a shift away from culturalist/essentialist understandings (especially in relation to nationalism) is well-taken and developed. The book will be a major contribution towards reasserting the importance of an attention to class-based discussion. Bruce Kapferer, University of Bergen. [A]
