The unimagined community

Imperialism and culture in South Vietnam

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The unimagined community presents a wide-ranging study of South Vietnemese culture, from political philosophy and psychological warfare to popular culture and film. The book pursues the provocative claim that in its early phase the conflict was not an anti-communist crusade, but a struggle between two different forms of anticolonial communism.
