As refugees set out to cross the Mediterranean, European nation-states refer to »cultural integrity« and »immigrant inassimilability,« revealing citizenship to be much more than a legal concept. The contributors to this volume take an interdisciplinary approach to considering how cultures of citizenship are being envisioned and interrogated in literary and cultural (con)texts. Through this framework, they attend to the tension between the citizen and its spectral others - a tension determined by how a country defines difference at a given moment.Edition KulturwissenschaftSOCIAL SCIENCE / Popular CulturebisacshAmerican Studies.Citizen.Cultural Studies.Cultural Theory.Culture.Immigration.Literary Studies.Literature.Migration.Non-Citizen.Postcolonialism.SOCIAL SCIENCE / Popular Culture.Evans Vanessa1461837Banerjee Mita596061MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910805685003321Cultures of Citizenship in the Twenty-First Century3670654UNINA
