"A signal contribution to our current understanding of the gendered politics of national and global economies of desire, labour, capital, and representation. Though the question of woman and/in the nation is not new, it has never before been engaged on such a scale or with such an attentiveness to diverse disciplines, media, and theoretical positions."-Parama Roy, author of Indian Traffic: Identities in Question in Colonial and Postcolonial India "This is a superb collection, deftly edited and wonderfully argued. Individually, the contributors expand the scope of transnationality studies to include the Middle East and Latin America. The volume as a whole focuses on important analytics: gendered imaginaries in nationalism, regulatory practices, and globablized feminism. The editors' argument for immanent critique is a useful contribution to thinking and teaching feminism in an international frame."-Tani E. Barlow, University of Washington
