“/Imagined Identities/ offers a rich kaleidoscope of contexts – 
disciplinary, geographic, and ideological – in which restless analysts 
of cultural identity, hailing from several disciplines, focus on 
beguilingly tiny yet sometimes enormously revelatory detail. Their 
concertedly mischievous tactic enables them to upset various epistemic 
apple-carts. The challenge they pose to received (and often imposed) 
wisdom will fuel critiques and positions for years to come.”

--- Michael Herzfeld, /Harvard University/
