• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Contributes to emerging studies of governmentality in non-western and non-liberal settings, by showing how neoliberal discourses on governance, development, education, the environment, community, religion, and sexual health, have been raised in other contexts. This book opens discussions of governmentality to 'other worlds' and the global politics of the present.
