E. San Juan is one of the world's most distinguished progressive critics. His book on Carlos Bulosan, among his numerous works, is one of the major documents in the development of Third World cultural criticism.

Bruce Franklin, Rutgers University

San Juan gives renewed expression of the extraordinary contributions made by Antonio Gramsci to our understanding of transformational agency and the role of culture within the international struggle against capitalist hegemony.

Samuel Noumoff, McGill University

E. San Juan is one of the sharpest and most clarifying voices vis-à-vis Filipino/U.S. and Filipino/world relationships extant. He is an internationalist and political analyst of high morale. It's about time his incisive theoretical summations are given broader access to strengthen the growing understanding of the multicultural united front of progressive thinkers around the world.

E. San Juan is a scholar of remarkable range and varied talents....Remarkable for his commitment to literature and culture as vital areas of contemporary social life.

Frederic Jameson, Duke University

A profound theoretical analysis of race, nation, and ethnicity in the 21st century. A must read for those who want to understand the acceleration and interpenetration of racial, national, and ethnic conflicts in the era of globalization.

Paul Wong, Dean of the College of Arts and Letters, San Diego State University

E. San Juan's intervention in the current debates on cultural studies is both necessary and significant. We can all learn valuable lessons from the Philippine experience.
