"Theoretically illuminating, politically engaged, and of vital importance, Breaks in the Chain lucidly intertwines subtle reflections about the ways immigrants negotiate and contest power with the interview narratives in a riveting manner. It exemplifies the very best of contemporary political theory."--Romand Coles, Northern Arizona University
"Breaks in the Chain is tremendously important and timely, treating as it does the intersection between immigration and unionization that is currently a critical edge of left politics and a new frontier of biopolitical power."--Lisa Disch, University of Michigan
"Breaks in the Chain retains its currency and powerful political message without ever denying its immigrant protagonists humanity, dignity and agency."--Journal of American Studies
"Apostolidis is not content to let the workers just "tell their story."...Breaks in the Chain seeks to interpret the workers' narratives in the language of critical theory."--Labor Studies Journal
"Apostolidis has certainly offered a thoughtful, innovative and worthwhile account of agency, inviting readers to work with him as he pursues these different narrative (and analytical) threads as a dynamic grounding for political democratic theorizing."--Theory & Event
"Breaks in the Chain will be of interest to a wide range of scholars, students as well as a wider public interested in fields covering political theory, social movements, transnational migration, amongst others, and related methodologies."--Breaks in the Chain
"Breaks in the Chain is a brilliant work of engaged political theory. This book is theoretically innovative and empirically rich. Without a doubt, this is a book that stands ready to push current debates and guide research in important new directions."--Perspectives on Politics
