Samenvatting
An ethnographic study showing how Western women living in Pakistan as international development workers constructed new identities in a Muslim community. Cook shows how these transnational migrants both perpetuate and resist unequal global power relations in everyday life, tracing the legacy of this from the colonial period to the present.
