Rituals and performances are a key theme in the study of nations
and nationalism. With the aim of stimulating further research in
this area, this book explores, debates and evaluates the role of
rituals and performances in the emergence, persistence and
transformation of nations, nationalisms and national identity. The
chapters comprising this book investigate a diverse array of
contemporary and historical phenomena relating to the symbolic life
of nations, from the Yasukuni Shrine in Japan to the Louvre in
France, written by an interdisciplinary cast of world-renowned and
up-and-coming scholars. Each of the contributors has been
encouraged to think about how his or her particular approach and
methods relates to the others. This has given rise to several
recurring debates and themes running through the book over how
researchers ought to approach rituals and performances and how they
might best be studied. The Cultural Politics of Nationalism and
Nation-Building will appeal to students and scholars of ethnicity
and nationalism, sociology, political science, anthropology,
cultural studies, performance studies, art history and
architecture.
