Asian Forms of the Nation (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Tonnesson, Stein; Antlov, Hans

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Asian forms of the nation have rarely been seen as independent, alternative models. Among today's leading theoreticians, there is a growing tendency to take Asia seriously, and to include Asian examples in the general discussion. The aim of the present collection is to build on and reinforce this tendency and demonstrates that in Asia, as well as in Europe, each nation forms a unique amalgam which can be compared fruitfully with others.
