<em>“</em>Who Are ‘We’? <em>does not provide a response to its own title. Rather, it pulls some of the historical, epistemic and political threads that have come to produce the intricate ‘we’ that we think we are… Importantly, this book is not a guide through pre‐existing affinities and alterities, but an invitation to imagine new ways of reconnecting people – anthropologists and those who are not – in ever productive ways.”</em> <strong>• Social Anthropology</strong></p>

<em>“[This volume] raises awareness about existing inequalities in knowledge production, and at the same time contributes to the theoretical discussions on knowledge production in anthropology.”</em> <strong>• Michal Buchowski</strong>, Adam Mickiewicz University</p>
