The Time of the Cannibals: On Conspiracy Theory and Context
The Time of the Cannibals rethinks conspiracy theory as an analytic category through a case study set in Cyprus, and proposes a particular kind of cross-contextual comparison as a way out of persistent ethnocentrism in scholarship and media coverage of conspiracy theory.

Praise for this book
Elizabeth Davis interrogates our ongoing epistemic breakdowns and offers a startlingly original theorization of conspiracy attunements. This is nothing less than a guide book on how to think critically and navigate our current post-fact, misinformation-filled media milieu.---Joseph Masco, University of Chicago
As the pages turn onto each other the brilliance of this book explodes showing that this is a project that brings together the ante- and afterlives of British colonialism in its most sinister form.---Neni Panourgiá, Columbia University
