Reviews
Susan Bibler Coutin, author of The Culture of Protest: Religious Activism and the U.S. Sanctuary Movement:
The work is highly original, contributing to theory regarding governmentality, as well as to knowledge regarding Canadian sanctuary practices ... Altogether, a fascinating and complex account.

Amy Swiffen:
Randy Lippert’s Sanctuary, Sovereignty and Sacrifice is an ambitious work that manages to successfully interrogate an empirical phenomena (sanctuary incidents) via a set of highly sophisticated theoretical concepts. Lippert’s sophisticated theoretical engagement and empirical investigation are intellectually fruitful and politically timely
Alan Hunt, Professor, Department of Law and Department of Sociology/Anthropology, Carleton University:
This is a most impressive book that deals with important contemporary questions with regard to immigration ... and provides a sophisticated application and intervention in the field of governmentality studies.
