About the book

Drawing on ethnographic case studies from Amazonia, Indonesia, Africa, Melanesia and Polynesia, this text shows how bodily presentation plays a fundamental role in contemporary identity politics in tension with encompassing national and global stereotypes, which may in turn both constrain and empower local traditions.
