"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] must-read. In the best tradition of Eric Wolf and Sydney Mintz, this book is a powerful example of the anthropological rethinking of class analysis that is necessary for grasping the contradictions of post-Cold War globalization. With Kalb's penetrating introductory essay and the urban case studies from across Europe, it addresses one of the most challenging issues of our time - the power of the new right." * Ida Susser, Hunter College and Graduate Center of the City University of New York
"[A]n extremely responsible engagement with the important issues of our time. It is throbbing with relevance and edgy in its provocations. Kalb's introductory essay is a tour de force, which shows how the various contributions add up to more than the sum of the parts. It will secure a wide readership in the social sciences, history, and cultural studies." * Gavin Smith, University of Toronto
