Trade Review
"Esman draws on a variety of conceptual perspectives, but employs them with a healthy agnosticism. His own approach is judicious and balanced, persuasive as an explanation of the sources and dynamics of ethnic conflict, while avoiding the pitfalls of ascribing malevolent and pathological qualities to ethnicity, or endowing it with transcendent moral value." -- M. Crawford Young
