Recensioner i media

"Clennon, in particular, is to be congratulated for making the critical intellectual effort to try and wrestle theoretically with how James might have made sense of the contemporary critical moment in Britain, amid ‘Brexit’ and the rise of Corbynism." (Christian Høgsbjerg, Race & Class, Vol. 60 (4), April-June, 2019)
