- Summary:
-
"Across the world, nations and the very idea of nationhood seem to be entering an insecure 'postmodern' phase. The essays in this volume, by distinguished scholars in Pacific studies, emerge from research in a region in which the nation - like other projects of modernity - has been peculiarly tenuous. These case studies focus upon local perceptions of the state, efforts to ground nationhood in tradition, the character of national narratives, and recent transformations of the Pacific nationalism."--BOOK JACKET.
