I wrote a chapter in this book, Exiled Writers, Human Rights, and Social Advocacy Groups in Australia: A Critical Fugal Analysis. This is a review on the amazon page: This book is not aimed at the layperson, something which is evident from titles such as Reframing Cultural Studies: Human Rights as a Site of Legal-cultural Struggles, and Immanent Law and the Juridical: Toward a Liberative Ontology of Human Rights. This content, instead, is aimed squarely at those interested in critical and academic research on these issues; however, as a non-academic reader with a legal background and a well developed interest in the interaction between law and society, I still found all of the papers engaging and thought provoking. The authors have written papers that are successful in promoting the value of looking at human rights and cultural studies interactively, rather than from a purely legal or purely cultural point of view...the content would be a valuable addition to any academic collection on human rights and/or cultural studies. Heather Wylie, Canadian Law Library Review The book is academic. It costs $133.00 for the print book and $113 for the ebook. Oddly enough it didnt help my academic career one bit publishing in such esteemed company and in such well reviewed books. I wasnt paid a cent for this. and have never been able to afford to buy the book- no complementary author copies were given. But I will include my chapter in further publications through mu publishing house Postmistress Press, so it will not be wasted.
