Review # 1 was written on 2013-01-19 00:00:00 Atila Huno this is book is so devastatingly smart it will make you want to drop out of your phd program - because the best thing ever has already been written. or, at the very least, shamlessly overcite it in your own dissertation

Review # 2 was written on 2013-10-13 00:00:00 Katrina Siroonian There are many things problematic about this book, but the only I can really be bothered typing about right now is Povinelli's gargantuan blind spot in how she is positioned in relation to her subjects. It could also be my barely self-acknowledged dislike of anthropology and anthropologists coming to the fore. I'll stick with Taiaiake Alfred, Glen Coulthard, Lorenzo Veracinini, and Linda Tuhiwai Smith in the realm of critiques of contemporary forms of colonial power.
