Reviews

“Syinat Sultanalieva’s book Nomadity of Being is based on her dissertation for the special programme in Japanese and Eurasian Studies at the University of Tsukuba, Japan. ... Her work should thus be celebrated as a necessary contribution to the fields of Decolonial Studies and Central Asian Studies … . In this sense, this dissertation reads as a refreshing and bold manifesto of the kurak, calling for a revolution in feminist and decolonial theory.” (Naomi Ntakiyica, IQAS, International Quarterly for Asian Studies, Vol. 54 (4), 2023)
