"The present volume is exceptionally welcome in that it brings together research by scholars with specialities in a very wide range of geo-political contexts and academic traditions. [...] This is an exceptionally valuable volume, which will be of use to scholars across a wide sweep of fields. Many of the individual essays also will provide an easily accessible entrée to the political histories of non-western societies to graduate and even undergraduate students."
-David S. Bachrach, Francia-Recensio, 2020, 4
