"This interesting ethnography follows the contradictions of Miskitu ethnicity as the population (caught between US imperialism and the Sandinistas) struggles to become part of the nation while maintaining its identity. Hale explores the politics of nation building, the constitutive role of hegemony among subordinate peoples, and the place of anthropology and the anthropologist in the construction of identity"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
