Reviews

This is a truly interesting and worthwhile case study, introducing a number of new interpretive ideas as well as data of broader relevance. It shows that the relation between the centre and the periphery is not one simply of one-way domination, but that characteristics of the periphery also contribute to its continuing status, though social-science graduates from the periphery can sometimes use foreign relations to structure their own careers. - Jennifer Platt, University of Sussex, International Sociology
