Editorial Reviews:
Product Description Nation, Race & History in Asian American Literature discusses the ideological processes at work in nationalism, both in its assertion that the nation is natural and self-evident, and in the way it seeks to suppress the irrational and contingent. The book examines the symbolic processes through which the United States constitutes its subjects as citizens, connecting such processes to the global dynamics of empire building and a suppressed history of American imperialism.
