Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the function of the "everyday" in the formation, consolidation and performance of national, sub-national and local identities in the former socialist region. It demonstrates how the study of mundane practices is a meaningful way of understanding the socio-political processes of identity formation at every level of a state.
