'In this fascinating and important book, M.I. Franklin reveals that they are already present. Reflecting on her own contribution, Franklin expresses the hope to have made the initial opening in terms of other ways in which ICTs can be thought about, designed, and eventually used, by examining the practice of everyday life online (p. 232). She has succeeded in doing this and more. - J. Marshall Beier, McMaster University, Canada
'If culture means the ways people make sense of their place and time in the world, and if anthropology's distinctive contribution the study of such ways has been based on ethnography - meeting culture-makers on their own ground and terms - then this book must count as a pioneering work. It transports research to a field whose reality is in no way denied by calling it virtual. It is an inspiring example to follow, all the more remarkable because the author is "technically" not an anthropologist.'
- Johannes Fabian, Amsterdam School of Social Research, the Netherlands
'While other ethnographic studies of the internet are sensitive to global concerns, Franklin’s strength is that she brings together a politically-informed analysis of the ways in which the internet is implicated in globalisation with a very subtle, nuanced exploration of the everyday practices of internet use by an economically marginal group of people, namely Pacific Islanders.'
- Sally Wyatt, ASCoR, University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands
'No neat conclusions here, and nor should there be, but plenty of food for thought and, with a generous sprinkling of direct quotes - hilarious, furious, honest, wise, confronting and always insightful - a thoroughly enjoyable read.'
- Helen Lee, La Trobe University, Australia.
'Postcolonial Politics, The Internet, and Everyday Life represents scholarship of the future. That is, it takes seriously how a group of people usually not heard from in mainstream academia (the South Pacific diaspora) utilizes a contemporary means of communication (the Internet) to articulate and formulate a subject rarely discussed in liberal democratic theory (collective identity in a globalized, postsovereign world).'
- L.H.M. Ling, The New School, USA
'Through this methodologically unique exploration of translocal negotiations of identity and political agency, Franklin offers us new meanings of self and community in resistance to technostrategic trajectories and erasures. Likening this 'other' internet to the 'oceans within' Pacific Islander consciousness, she takes us to new "shorelines" of feminist postcolonial inquiry.'
- Anne Sisson Runyan, University of Cincinnati, USA
