"This valuable anthology gathers together feminist perspectives on gender, postcolonial critique, and critiques of Western modernity, and the considerable work on global capitalism and transnationalism. The work is theoretically sophisticated and ethnographically rich, intervening in the discussions of women, colonial and neocolonial modernity, and globalization with respect to South Asian and Southeast Asian women and locales."--Lisa Lowe, author of "Immigrant Acts"
