The Comaroffs have long been at the forefront of the study of the 'global south,' and they have produced another field-defining book. In their latest, they lay out a striking argument, boldly reconceptualizing global relations to suggest the ways in which the south is now 'remaking' the north. They write for all readers interested in globalism and the direction our world is taking. – Henry Louis Gates, Jr., Harvard University "Jean and John Comaroff put the case in the strongest possible terms, and do so with flair, eloquence and brilliance: that Africa and the global south more broadly are in the vanguard of world history, generative of global futures and theory to match. This is a book that will be read and debated with vigor and profit." – Charles Piot, Duke University
