Opis

A critical analysis of influential theories on identity politics and recognition in the Global South which proposes new policy solutions.

Recenzje

'By empirically examining cases from three Andean countries, Fontana's powerfully argued book challenges the primary logic of recognition reforms by delineating the circumstances under which they fuel inter-communal conflict and competition-rather than, as usually assumed, contribute to conflict prevention and mitigation.  Fontana's set of cases reveals a “dark side” to recognition under which the poorest communities are further marginalized.'
