School of Europeanness shows how post–Cold War liberalization projects in Latvia contributed to the current crisis of political liberalism in Europe, providing deep ethnographic analysis of the power relations in Latvia and the rest of Europe, and identifying the tension between exclusive polities and inclusive values as foundational of Europe’s political landscape.
Dace Dzenovska is Associate Professor in the Anthropology of Migration at the University of Oxford Centre on Migration, Policy, and Society.
"School of Europeanness is certainly an innovative and well-conceived book and has a considerable capacity to impact how we think about postsocialist societies, their directions of past and future social change."
Kevin Platt, University of Pennsylvania:
"School of Europeanness is written with intellectual verve and imagination. Dace Dzenovska argues that the frames of European belonging, national community, tolerance, and liberalism that have been applied in Latvia in the postsocialist decades have reproduced structures of exclusion and dominance in the relationship between a 'good European core' and a 'not European enough' periphery."
Vera Tolz, University of Manchester:
"School of Europeanness has enough originality, as well as empirical data, to appeal to a wide range of scholars from different disciplines, including anthropology, politics, and international relations."
