Longing for Belonging among the Marginalized in Urban Australia is an important and compelling study of the co-constituting forms of exclusion that are not only produced through neoliberal projects, but central to their function. Ritsuko Kurita brings new empirical and theoretical insight into the forms of community, solidarity, and horizontal citizenship that develop in the midst of neoliberal exclusion, with particular attention to shared experiences of racialized exclusion experienced by non-White groups, from recently arrived refugees and other migrant groups to Aboriginal Australians, and the ways that these common experiences can produce new forms of belonging. --Georgina Ramsay, University of Delaware
