This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference
proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Wireless
Internet, WICON 2014, held in Lisbon, Portugal, in November 2014.
The 45 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected
from numerous submissions. The papers cover topics such as 5G
mobile communications, Internet of Things (IoT), super Wi-Fi and
V2V/V21.
Examining various cultural products-music, cartoons, travel guides,
ideographic treaties, film, and especially the literary arts-the
contributors of these thirteen essays invite readers to
conceptualize citizenship as a narrative construct, both in Canada
and beyond. Focusing on indigenous and diasporic works, along with
mass media depictions of Indigenous and diasporic peoples, this
collection problematizes the juridical, political, and cultural
ideal of universal citizenship. Readers are asked to envision the
nation-state as a product of constant tension between coercive
practices of exclusion and assimilation. Narratives of Citizenship
is a vital contribution to the growing scholarship on narrative,
nationalism, and globalization. Contributors: David Chariandy, Lily
Cho, Daniel Coleman, Jennifer Bowering Delisle, Aloys N.M.
Fleischmann, Sydney Iaukea, Marco Katz, Lindy Ledohowski, Cody
McCarroll, Carmen Robertson, Laura Schechter, Paul Ugor, Nancy Van
Styvendale, Dorothy Woodman, and Robert Zacharias.
