King Arthur's Sister in Washington's Court

“One of the more vibrant debates among contemporary scholars of race and immigration concerning the racial fate of Latinos”
—American Journal of Sociology

“An outstanding overview of theories of racism…an excellent read for students and scholars in the field. Summing Up: Highly recommended.” —CHOICE

“Latinos Facing Racism is an up to date, clear and well documented [book] that highlights the  pervasiveness of the dynamics of racial discrimination still active in  American society.”
—Iperstoria

“Feagin and Cobas wake the daydreamer who assumed in 2013 that Latinos are now viewed as American as apple pie, that they are seen as the warp and weave of our nation’s fabric. With passionate prose and solid scholarship, they point out the stereotypes, images, words, narratives, ways of speaking, and other white racial framings that perpetuate two ranks of American citizens. Their volume is a needed memorandum to remind us that the freedom from discrimination has not been achieved in the United States.”
—Otto Santa Ana, University of California–Los Angeles

“The explanatory power of the ‘white racial frame,’ grounded in compelling histories, elucidates these detailed accounts of Latino experiences in the United States. Attention to the power of the frame to shape these experiences is balanced by emphasis on a long tradition of Latino resistance. An original, important, and useful book.”
—Jane H. Hill, University of Arizona

’A major contribution to the research literature on prostitution in Nordic countries. The book insightfully highlights similarities and differences across the five countries in their sex markets and in recent prostitution policies, and identifies the key social forces responsible for shaping both public perceptions and state policies regarding prostitution. A groundbreaking, comprehensive analysis of Nordic debates on sex work using a unique, multi-national perspective.’  Ronald Weitzer, George Washington University, USA  ’This book offers a much welcome critical and nuanced account of the Nordic model of prostitution regulation which challenges simplistic understandings and homogeneous approaches to the issue and its treatment across these similar yet distinctive jurisdictions. Empirically rich and analytically complex, this is a must-read for academics, policy makers and indeed anyone who seeks a deeper understanding of this fascinating area.’ Jane Scoular, University of Strathclyde, UK ’Skilbrei and Holmstrom are excellent at raising thoughtful questions... is targeted at the academics and researchers involved in the debates surrounding prostitution policy, and it is highly recommended to those who work in this area.’  LSE Review of Books  'This is an important book because it cuts through much of the contemporary rhetoric to provide (the first) comprehensive description of the last four decades of prostitution and prostitution policy development in Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark. ... Prostitution Policy in the Nordic Region is an important book that dispels many of the myths and assumptions made in this country about the benefits of criminalizing the purchase of sex: the biggest being that criminalizing the purchase of sex produces anything other than tighter controls on sex working women. ... this book is a must read for anyone (student, academic, policy-maker) with a serious interest in prostitution policy reform.'

’This is a highly informative work that places Revolutionary theatre at the centre of political and cultural developments. While it will be of value to anyone with an interest in the plays under discussion, it should be especially compelling to those working in the area of eighteenth-century theatre, culture, and politics.’  Modern Language Review  'Feilla’s book is remarkably well-documented. The author has been scrupulous in her reading of the literature and offers genuinely original insights on the sentimental character of a corpus that has largely been ignored.'  H-France Review  ’...this is a welcome addition to a growing literature on the culture of the French Revolution and offers a useful corrective to excessively political readings of its theatre. It is sure to be of vital interest to all those interested in the history of the emotions, in Revolutionary and eighteenth-century culture, and in theatre history.’  French Studies  '... Feilla sheds fresh light upon a range of texts and practices that critics have tended to pass over. ... recommended to those interested in Revolutionary theater, eighteenth-century popular culture and politics, and the history of the emotions more generally.' Restoration and 18th Century Theatre Research   'Overall this is an ambitious, wide-ranging and thought-provoking monograph which is set to become required reading for everyone working on cultural production of the Revolutionary decade and the early nineteenth century.' BARS Review  'This insightful, articulate study illustrates the impact that theatrical esthetics had upon the French Revolution’s overarching goal of transforming society. Drawing upon statistical data of Parisian theater repertories, performance studies, affect theory, and the forms and functions of sentimentality, Feilla showcases the literary vitality of a largely forgotten body of plays and theatrical writings that transformed Enlightenment ideals into nineteenth-century paradigms. ...

’Intimacies and Cultural Change celebrates and gives voice to the kind of interdisciplinary collaboration that is possible, as scholars from a wide array of intellectual paths converge to advance our understanding of the ways in which intimacy, sexuality, love and relationships, and family life are being organized and reinvented in an increasingly globalized 21st century Mexican society.’ Gloria GonzÃ¡lez-LÃ³pez, The University of Texas, Austin, USA  ’This book provides a long overdue examination of global influences on cultural change - in particular, within Mexican families. As the contexts of both families and Mexico have changed, so have the cultural meanings of sexuality, relationships, parenting, marriage, etc. In particular, this book lays the groundwork for an indigenous and emerging Family Science in Mexico.’ Stephan M. Wilson, Oklahoma State University, USA

'... the articles provide a much needed corrective to the critical tendency to represent the new systems for the sending, storing, and retrieving of data as the driving force in the transition from an industrial to knowledge economy... The results will be of interest not only to those concerned with the representation of laboring bodies in popular literature and culture, but with what it means to live at a time in which information is not so much a means of understanding the world as it is a kind of universal currency, the value of which demands the effacement of the  manual labor of which it is a product... valuable collection of essays.'
