Communities of Difference

It looks like Communities of Difference (Palgrave Macmillan) is finally out. They're taking orders on amazon for it. I've got 2 chapters in it... I hope I get a copy. :)


Reviews
"This is a collected book that explores and heart and soul of one of the foremost dilemmas of Western culture--the tension between community and individualism--and in doing so, offers a compelling critique of the challenges of communities oif difference facing neo-liberal globalizations. A timely book for unsettling times."--Carlos Alberto Torres, Professor, Univeristy of California, Los Angeles
