- Drawing on two ethnographic research projects funded by the ESRC and the British Academy in the very different contexts of Malaysia and Panama, this monograph is the culmination of collaborative conceptual and theoretical work by the two authors over 10 years. Dr Benson conducted the research in Panama, which included numerous site visits, in-depth interviews and participant observation. The book merits double-weighting not only for the scale and scope of the empirical research, but also because of the collaborative work required for the development of a sustained argument concerning neoliberalism, postcolonialism and privilege that synthesises both projects.
