"Bringing together an unusually wide range of concerns, "Learning Places" offers a theoretical account of Asian area studies and a moral and political critique of past and recurrent practices of epistemic violence. The political urgency of this type of work makes this a timely collection. This important book opens up a series of debates that must be had between the new humanities, area studies, and the disciplines."--Michael Dutton, editor of "Streetlife China"
