Reviews

Alan Sears, Department of Sociology, Ryerson University:

"Manufacturing Phobias offers a creative take on the politics of fear in the early twenty-first century. What distinguishes this collection is the range of issues covered, including Islamophobia, crime, popular culture, and migrants’ rights, and its geographic breadth."
