This book is about the new nationalist resurgence [against neo-liberalism]. It is the work of a committed and engaged scholarship, one which does not pretend to be neutral in the struggle between imperialism and the working people. It is most welcome and should be read by our scholars and activists of the tri-continent. -- Issa Shivji, Mwalimu Nyerere University Professor, University of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania This collaborative approach to revisiting the national question in the South has assembled a stellar group of scholars working and studying in Africa, Asia and Latin America... This book provides essential clues to understand the present nature of the state in the periphery and to re-connect the South through all its dimensions. -- Gladys Lechini, Professor of International Relations, National University of Rosario, Argentina This excellent collection of essays provides a holistic and systematic investigation of the relevance of the National Question in the contemporary South. It is one of the finest collections to engage with the relevant issues at the current juncture. -- Praveen Jha, Centre for Economics Studies and Planning (CESP), Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), New Delhi, India
