Expanding Nationalisms at World's Fairs: Identity, Diversity, and
Exchange, 1851-1915 introduces the subject of international
exhibitions to art and design historians and a wider audience as a
resource for understanding the broad and varied political meanings
of design during a period of rapid industrialization, developing
nationalism, imperialism, expanding trade and the emergence of a
consumer society. Its chapters, written by both established and
emerging scholars, are global in scope, and demonstrate specific
networks of communication and exchange among designers,
manufacturers, markets and nations on the modern world stage from
the second half of the nineteenth century into the beginning of the
twentieth. Within the overarching theme of nationalism and
internationalism as revealed at world's fairs, the book's essays
will engage a more complex understanding of ideas of competition
and community in an age of emergent industrial capitalism, and will
investigate the nuances, contradictions and marginalized voices
that lie beneath the surface of unity, progress, and global
expansion.
