Opis

This handbook presents a comprehensive survey of the formation and transformation of nationalism in fifteen East and Southeast Asian countries.　

Written by a team of international scholars from different backgrounds and disciplines, this volume offers new perspectives on studying Asian history, society, culture, and politics, and provides readers with a unique lens through which to better contextualise and understand the relationships between countries within East and Southeast Asia, and between Asia and the world. It highlights the latest developments in the field and contributes to our knowledge and understanding of nationalism and nation building. Comprehensive and clearly written, this book examines a diverse set of topics that include theoretical considerations on nationalism and internationalism; the formation of nationalism and national identity in the colonial and postcolonial eras; the relationships between traditional culture, religion, ethnicity, education, gender, technology, sport, and nationalism; the influence of popular culture on nationalism; and politics, policy, and national identity. It illustrates how nationalism helped to draw the borders between the nations of East and Southeast Asia, and how it is re-emerging in the twenty-first century to shape the region and the world into the future.

The Routledge Handbook of Nationalism in East and Southeast Asia is essential reading for those interested in and studying Asian history, Social and Cultural history and modern history.

Recenzje

'Professor Lu Zhouxiang has done an excellent job in bringing together a range of essays – both general and focused on particular states, regions, and themes – concerned with nationalism in both East and South-East Asia. This will be of value to the general reader by virtue of its breadth of coverage. It will also help historians and social scientists in the field to contextualise their own findings in light of similar work by other specialists.'

John Breuilly, Professor, London School of Economics and Political Science

'Nationalism is one of the most powerful and important factors to shape Asia, one of the most dynamic areas in the world, and understanding it is crucial for scholars and the wider world alike. Combining syntheses of deep research with strong explanatory frameworks, this handbook will be essentially reading for all scholars of nationalism and ideology.'

Rana Mitter, Professor, University of Oxford

'This handbook is invaluable guide to nationalism in East and Southeast Asia. It offers a comprehensive survey of the field and is an essential work of reference for scholars of nationalism.'
