'Challenges in many ways the traditional discipline of political science' Acta Politica

'Exciting collection. All the contributions are interesting. Their authors display an enviable grasp of contemporary critical theory and yet, in the limited space allocated to them, they manage to deal with complex issues about discourse, language and representation in a clear, succinct and relatively accessible way. This collection should thus play an important part in introducing these debates to the uninitiated, the sceptical and those without much time.' Feminist Review

'An invaluable teaching text in social and political theory courses.' ANZJS
