This volume responds to the question: How do you know when you
belong to a country? In other words, when is the nation-state a
homeland? The boundaries and borders defining who belongs and who
does not proliferate in the age of globalization, although they may
not coincide with national jurisdictions. Contributors to this
collection engage with how these boundaries are made and sustained,
examining how belonging is mediated by material relations of power,
capital, and circuits of communication technology on the one side
and representations of identity, nation, and homeland on the other.
The authors' diverse methodologies, ranging from archival research,
oral histories, literary criticism, and ethnography attend to these
contradictions by studying how the practices of migration and
identification, procured and produced through global exchanges of
bodies and goods that cross borders, foreclose those borders to
(re)produce, and (re)imagine the homeland and its boundaries.
