Description

This is a book about the difficulties of thinking and acting politically in ways that refuse the politics of nationalism. Set against the backdrop of the imaginative geographies of the War in Terror and the new beginning promised by the Presidency of Barack Obama, the book shows how critical interventions often work in collaboration with nationalist politics, even when the aim is to resist nationalism.
