"The first question to ask about an edited volume is: why does it exist? The material on Jameson in English is relatively meager considering the extent of his influence, and so any book dedicated to a close engagement with his work is welcome. By a slightly more ambitious commonsense criterion—a volume like this should collect important essays on an important topic in a more or less coherent way—the book succeeds admirably." — symplokē"The contributors exude a sense of the younger generation claiming Jameson's work as its own, not defensively or by simple identification with any political line, but as part of an ongoing set of intellectual struggles with the best that has been known and thought about the largest issues of their/our own time." — Bruce Robbins, author of Feeling Global: Internationalism in Distress
