“With Enchanted Modernities, Morton provides us with the language we need to make sense of the fascinating global Indigenous moment we are witnessing today.” - Oona Thommes Paredes, author of A Mountain of Difference: The Lumad in Early Colonial Mindanao “A very important contribution to Southeast Asian ethnography, religious studies, and Indigenous social movement research. Drawing on extensive field research and unparalleled access to cosmopolitan Akha intellectuals, Morton explores, in clear and accessible terms, how the Akha people are building new networks and alliances in order to resist assimilation and revitalize their ancestral connections.” - Nancy J. Eberhardt, author of Imagining the Course of Life: Self-Transformation in a Shan Buddhist Community
