Weijing Le, Asien 2016, 148
»an important contribution to the comparative politics of post-colonial popular consciousness and collective action. She has shown exemplary courage and initiative in engaging with the field in terms of its interdisciplinary breadth and empirical depth, conducting surveys of opinions and attitudes through indepth interviews and delving into public documents as well as indigenous sources. Her reading of theoretical texts outside her main discipline is significantly diverse, both standard positivist mainstream works as well as a very promising foray into alternative methodological works such as those of Henri Lefebvre, Pierre Nora and Bernard Cohn... important contribution to the emerging field of research in post-colonial politics... Liza Kam's contribution has much to teach un in contested arenas of public space in the post-colonial world... Liza Kam's serious and valuable contribution to the sociology of knowledge, architecture of space, collective action and comparative modernity deserves our strong recommendation.«
