'...a strong and innovative contribution to scholarship... where dress, interiors and personal identity come together. The book prompted me to think about my own scholarship in different and interesting ways.' Virginia Terry Boyd, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA 
'... the in-depth treatment of the subject is admirable and brings a new level of understanding to visual culture studies. It is to be recommended for advanced students and academic patrons.' Arlis/NA 
'Through a series of British, European and North American case studies, this volume explores the material and conceptual relationships between fashion, interior design and identity... Highlighting the methodological challenges and rewards posed by both representational and physical examples that date from the eighteenth century to the present, Fashion, Interior Design and the Contours of Modern Identity has successfully brought together work emanating from a range of related but distinct disciplines within historical scholarship; a multi-disciplinary approach which is especially valuable where identical subject material has been explored from different perspectives and using different tools of analysis.' Textile History 
'This volume brings together a collection of eleven essays by leading academics in the field of art and design history with the underlying theme of the correlation between fashion and interiors... This volume has succeeded in its aim to highlight the close relationship between fashion and interior spaces in history. Well researched and written, it is undoubtedly an important contribution in the study of visual and material culture.' Costume

"This well-researched and engaging study makes a provocative case that Brazilian developmentalism had heretofore unidentified political consequences that shaped the nation throughout the second half of the twentieth century and beyond. Ioris turns the conventional wisdom on its head by locating the origins of the 1964 military coup in the developmentalism of the 1950s. This innovative argument will no doubt spark debate on twentieth-century Brazilian and Latin American political economy." 

—Joel Wolfe, University of Massachusetts 
"Rafael Ioris properly dispels the notion of late 1950s Brazil as embodied in the image of a smiling Juscelino Kubitschek overseeing the construction of Brasília and a dispute-free march towards national development. Ioris delves into the era’s ideological debates and the lives of working-class people to provide us with a more realistic view of the challenges inherent in transformative human endeavors. Ultimately, Ioris sheds critical light on the years leading up to one of the most intriguing yet tragic developments of modern Latin America: the overthrow of Brazil’s democratically elected government in 1964. Ioris’s work is a must-read for anybody wishing to comprehend Brazil’s subsequent efforts to further project itself globally."
—Kenneth P. Serbin, University of San Diego
"Drawing on a vast array of published and archival sources, Rafael Ioris has produced a sophisticated analysis of the debates about national development in postwar Brazil. This study offers fresh insights into the hopes and dreams of an impressive array of interest groups—including politicians, technocrats, labor leaders and many others—who sought to make the ‘country of the future’ into a developed nation."
—Marshall C. Eakin, Vanderbilt University
"This well-researched book offers a rich picture of the trajectory of development in the JK years and will serve as a valuable reference."
—Thomas D. Rogers, Emory University
"Overall, the book illuminates the wide spectrum of interpretations and meanings that scholars, policy-makers and directly affected socio-political groups assigned to the term ‘development’. The reader gains a good sense of the lines of debate and eventual disagreement between the different interests, manifest in the contentious politicsof the early 1960s and the 1964 military coup."—Oliver Dinius, University of Mississippi
"Scholars of this period in Brazilian history will welcome Ioris’s detailed explication of the academic institutions, industry organizations, and labor groups that vied to influence economic policy during the Kubitschek administration."— Eve E.Buckley, University of Delaware

"Concrete Demands is a tour de force. Rhonda Y. Williams's panoramic study of Black Power in the 20th century offers a comprehensive and insightful history of the way in which one of the most controversial social movements of the 1960s transformed American democracy and race relations. In doing so it stands out as one of the most important books ever written on the era."
—Peniel E. Joseph, author of Dark Days, Bright Nights: From Black Power to Barack Obama
"Rhonda Williams is a brilliant historian whose work wrestles with and illuminates the ongoing struggle for Black liberation and the practice of grassroots organizing. With great skill and unrelenting passion, Concrete Demands offers new and important insights into our understanding of the Black Power movement of the late twentieth century and its implications for the intellectual and political challenges of the 21st century."
—Barbara Ransby, author of Ella Baker and the Black Freedom Movement: A Radical Democratic Vision
"Williams traces the origins and diverse manifestations of black power thought and activism from the early to the late 20th century, demonstrating that core tenets such as black self-determination, economic justice, and armed self-defense had precedents in the Jim Crow era that influenced a younger generation of activists who popularized these ideas in the 1960s...An intriguing and valuable synthesis that will interest both academic and general audiences. Summing Up: Highly recommended."
—G. E. de Jong, University of Nevada, Reno, CHOICE Review

Hence, there are more than enough reasons to strongly recommend the book to a wide audience. Among them, there are good and motivated graduate university students. … Also, the book is an excellent reference book.” (Jordan M. Stoyanov, zbMATH 1338.60001, 2016)
