"This volume's concern with responsibility captures a range of facets of neoliberal policies in a focused and novel way. An absorbing and compelling read, Competing Responsibilities makes an original contribution to the continuing delineation of neoliberal policy and practice as the subject and grounding of contemporary anthropological research."

(George E. Marcus, coauthor of Designs for an Anthropology of the Contemporary)

"At this moment, when the concept of responsibility seems irretrievably tarnished by its long association with neoliberalism and individualistic ideals of 'personal responsibility,' these essays offer surprising evidence that 'responsibility' is being reactivated and reimagined around the globe for collective life, for caring and social inclusion, and world-building. Together, the essays attest to the importance of contesting 'responsibility,' rather than abandoning the concept, by combining theoretical, ethnographic, and political research that wrestles 'responsibility' out of its moribund association with neoliberalism and back into the lifeblood of public life."

(Barbara Cruikshank, author of The Will to Empower: Democratic Citizens and Other Subjects)
