Recensioner i media
“This book demonstrates the urgent need for a scholarly discourse on methodological concerns with intellectual representations of minorities and subaltern groups. It echoes postcolonial critiques of representation, challenges the ‘transparency by denegations’ of intellectuals and undoes the ‘epistemic violence’… By unraveling these realities, the book contributes a meaningful analysis of deep-seated social values and heterogeneous norms for advancing the discipline of anthropology.” • Anthro Book Forum
