Recenzii

"Both camps should welcome this compendium of essays that takes as its focus the notion of the subjugated, captive body, a central contruct in recent debates in feminist theory, postcolonial theory, psychoanalysis, and theories of narrativity.Body Trade is the first book to present theories of the body in relation to the colonial histories of Australia and the Pacific. The Contemporary Pacific Fall, 2003."
