‘Publishing Richard Falk in India for the first time is an intellectual event itself. Falk’s work in international relations and his role as a public intellectual have been crucial influences on at least two generations of researchers, policy makers and political movements.’
- Ashis Nandy, Fellow, Centre for the Study of Developing Societies, Delhi
‘This profound work brings to us all … Falk’s many-splendoured gifts of restless understanding of what it may mean to say “human” and “having rights” in the deeply troubled and wounding incarnations of post-Westphalian world orderings.’
- Upendra Baxi, Emeritus Professor of Law, University of Warwick, UK
‘Like his great peers, Edward Said and Amartya Sen, he has bridged grand theory and quotidian policy as it shapes and misshapes the life chances of ordinary people.’
- Tom Farer, University Professor, University of Denver
‘Reflecting deep moral conviction, [Falk's] seminal essays shine a brilliant light on pathways to social justice through democratic activism.’
- James H. Mittelman, University Professor of International Studies,
American University, USA
‘Falk's work combines a searching criticism of the inequities of current systems of global governance with a positive and constructive vision of how they can be changed.’
