Reviews

"'For those who think that state personhood is not only useful but also a real social feature of global politics, Naude’s book is an achievement on a number of fronts. It is a splendid blend of careful analysis combined with creativity and innovation, and thus worthy of scholarly attention now and in the years to come.’ Brent Steele, Perspectives on Politics ""This is a well-written and accessible book that makes a strong case for complicating our understanding of the link between identity and state behaviour. … [The] book will be valuable for scholars interested in foreign policy, as well as in states’ emotions and states’ psychological functioning more generally."" Nina C. Krickel-Choi, International Affairs"
