“The book is organized chronologically, encompassing the late colonial to post-Cold War era. … In a world where the core principles of the modern nation-state system are increasingly under pressure by non-state and some state actors, any discussion which problematizes our assumptions about sovereignty, development, and security should be encouraged. In this respect, Rethinking the Third World is a critical and fascinating starting point to stimulate such debates.” (Seyed Saeed Mousavi, Journal of Global Analysis, Vol. 7 (2), 2017)
