| Editorial Review | As Fiona Mackenzie demonstrates in her important new book, the Highlands and Hebrides have become, in recent years, the center of a sustained effort to construct an alternative, place-based and more generous politics to that of a neoliberal imaginary Mackenzie has written a book that is thrilling in its optimism and hopefulness. She convincingly explains in compelling detail the hopeful possibilities of the re-commoning in the Hebrides and Highlands. This is rarely the stuff of academic study but is at the heart of Places of Possibility s profound ambitions and most important contribution: anticipating more socially, environmentally and economically generous postneoliberalisms .
