"'The story of a world gone wild, ' writes Ruben Andersson. To this global wilderness, the anthropologist's craft must adapt, in field research and in reporting. No Go World shows a way to do it and is destined to draw a wide readership."--Ulf Hannerz, Emeritus Professor of Social Anthropology, Stockholm University, and author of Writing Future Worlds: An Anthropologist Explores Global Scenarios "One of the best books available on what is commonly perceived in the West as the 'refugee crisis' but is in fact a world rent by fear and conflict, with refugees as one symptom."--Craig Calhoun,…mehr

"'The story of a world gone wild, ' writes Ruben Andersson. To this global wilderness, the anthropologist's craft must adapt, in field research and in reporting. No Go World shows a way to do it and is destined to draw a wide readership."--Ulf Hannerz, Emeritus Professor of Social Anthropology, Stockholm University, and author of Writing Future Worlds: An Anthropologist Explores Global Scenarios "One of the best books available on what is commonly perceived in the West as the 'refugee crisis' but is in fact a world rent by fear and conflict, with refugees as one symptom."--Craig Calhoun, University Professor of Social Sciences, Arizona State University, and former Director of the London School of Economics "An impressive and wide-ranging tour de force. With great panache and critical thinking, Andersson explores the ideas and practices behind our current 'global map of fear' and how it must be rethought and challenged."--Hans Lucht, author of Darkness before Daybreak: African Migrants Living on the Margins in Southern Italy Today "This beautifully written book takes us on a journey through the distanced interventions of the 'war on terror, ' showing how, in these global times, efforts to push risk ever further away end up bringing it closer--creating the basis for a no go world. Full of ideas and stories, and with hope as well as pessimism, it is the sort of book that needs to be read slowly."--Mary Kaldor, Professor of Global Governance, London School of Economics, and author of New and Old Wars "No Go World provides a geopolitical map of security investment and withdrawal, hot spots and danger zones. An important study and an engaging read."--Mark Maguire, author of Bodies as Evidence: Security, Knowledge, and Power
