“Tracking Europe is a very timely work that explores some of the most pertinent and problematic issues involved in thinking and rethinking Europe. The book’s merits lie in both the analyses and ethnographic details of specific sites in which Europe is constructed, from port-authority surveillance to tourism and institutionalized cities of culture, and in its critical appropriation of noted studies in the fields of cultural studies and migration studies, theories of travel, and the philosophy of belonging.”-Iain Chambers, author of Mediterranean Crossings: The Politics of an Interrupted Modernity “Tracking Europe is an important book, very relevant to current world affairs. Ginette Verstraete transposes political and economic issues into a critical space of engagement with culture and the arts in a theoretically innovative and lively manner.”-Caren Kaplan, author of Questions of Travel: Postmodern Discourses of Displacement
