Jodi Kim frames spaces heretofore deemed anomalous or marginal—the camptown, the POW camp, and the unincorporated territory—as the very sites where US empire establishes its authority to rule. In the process of redefining and reframing US empire, Kim offers a unique and sorely needed relational methodology for understanding the connection between its various modes, in particular between military empire and settler colonialism.\" -- Grace Kyungwon Hong, author of * Death beyond Disavowal: The Impossible Politics of Difference *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction.
