Review
“Julia Khrebtan-Hörhager’s brilliant book offers readers a concise and provocative definition of cultural Othering—a practice of politically empowered elites to discursively, visually, and materially divide humanity into a group of those with access to the freedoms of liberal, Western modernity and those on whose backs that world has been built. Her examination of cultural Othering is elegant and pointed, pulling from cases across vast geopolitical and historical events to elucidate the harms of Othering and to acknowledge the importance in disentangling ourselves from the Self/Other regime.” -- Michael Lechuga, Author of Visions of Invasion: Alien Affects, Cinema, and Citizenship in Settler Colonies“This book is a timely reminder that othering, while persistent, has never been the only way people approach those who are different from them.” -- Jolanta Drzewiecka, Università della Svizzera italiana“A beautifully written and deeply textured exploration of the multiple meanings of ‘Othering.’ Khrebtan-Hörhager leads the reader to reflect upon an array of textual and visual examples of depictions of Others, driving home the argument that this is a universal and ongoing challenge.” -- Todd Sandel, The University of Macau“This book provides a comprehensive interdisciplinary analysis of cultural othering as a discursive, rhetorical, and material process. Julia Khrebtan-Hörhager astutely integrates cross-continental histories of othering, oppression, and resistance to illuminate othering as a complex assemblage that guides how we live with each other.” -- Marina Levina, The University of Memphis"An intellectually stimulating, rigorously analyzed, and historically extremely well-informed study of the phenomenon of Othering worldwide. It engages a wide variety of disciplines without yet compromising on the original aims and scope of the book. . . It could also greatly benefit scholars of globalization, as well as political scientists, ethnographers, sociologists, anthropologists, and critical media scholars."
-- Ukrainian Journal of World Literature VSESVIT, Evgeniya Pyatovskaya"An intricate and relevant work that elucidates intercultural Othering from multiple perspectives. The book engages with the concept of Othering from a critical cultural perspective and through presenting and analysing complex cross-cultural and cross-temporal examples of verbal, visual, and material cultural Othering across the globe." -- Journal of Multicultural Discourses, Evgeniya Pyatovskaya
