- Research was produced over a decade and analysis involved ethnographic data from various fieldsites (mostly Brazil in the 2000s and Portugal in the 1980s) and a large bibliography. The first essays reflecting the arguments that would become the structure the book were published in 2009 ('The all-or-nothing syndrome and the human condition', Social Analysis) and 2010 (‘The door in the middle’ in Culture Wars, James, Plaice & Toren (eds). Colleagues’ response to these essays fed into the ultimate argument of the book. While ethnographic material was mostly collected since the 1980s, the analyses were all specifically written for the book.
