<p>"Global Fragments is an incredibly rich text that covers an enormous and impressive amount of ground—from theories of globalization to a study of Latin American thought to, in its final section, a series of engagements with particular 'global' thinkers." — CITY: Analysis of Urban Trends, Culture, Theory, Policy, Action</p><p>"Mendieta brilliantly and imaginatively weaves together critical social theories from global theory, Latin American philosophy, Frankfurt School critical theory, and African American philosophy to put forth a synthetic vision of global ethics from the perspective of the oppressed." — Cynthia Willett, author of The Soul of Justice: Social Bonds and Racial Hubris</p><p>"The author creatively addresses globalization in an interdisciplinary way that links pertinent questions—often discussed in isolation—emerging from the fields of history, philosophy, and literature." — Manfred B.
