-- Funk is located in Gainesville, FL -- Funk's monograph is a carefully-crafted expansion of his dissertation, which earned the American Political Science Association's Bronner Dissertation Award. He has a good social media presence and is well known and regarded in the Global Studies and Global South Studies fields. -- This text deals with issue of how the global elite see themselves in relation to their home countries and how this self-identification informs their politics and worldview. It is, for this reason, timely and promises to be relevant for many years to come. -- The work adds to the Framing the Global series on several fronts. To date, much of the work in the series has focused on anthropology, the arts, and issues surrounding NGOs and government organizations. This work offers a much-needed perspective from the field of political science. The work also approaches a South-South relationship which has to date received little attention from Western (American) scholars and publishers. -- The audience for this work is scholars working in political science, international relations, Arab studies, Latin American studies, and Global studies.
