About this book
Reviews
"Flibbert is the first political scientist in the twenty-first century to pursue the implications of what was obvious back in the twentieth century to officials at the Departments of State and Commerce and at a dozen American embassies, as well as to national party fund-raisers, lawyers, and New York investors: the global film industry matters." - Robert Vitalis, Associate Professor of Political Science, University of Pennsylvania 'Commerce in Culture does two things brilliantly. First, it demonstrates not just 'the politics of culture' in the sense of socially constructed representations of national identity, but also a sophisticated analysis of how culture inflects political economy. Secondly, it does this in a bold comparative framework that goes well beyond the two main points of comparison. Flibbert's book sheds light on colonial history, postcolonial politics, the sometimes paradoxical processes of 'globalization', and, perhaps most importantly, the previously unappreciated high political stakes of culture.'
- Walter Armbrust, Middle East Centre, St. Antony's College
