Nowhere, Dzenovska writes, is this tension more glaring than in the former Soviet Republics.Using Latvia as a representative case, School of Europeanness is a historical ethnography of the tolerance work undertaken in that country as part of postsocialist democratization efforts. Dzenovska contends that the collapse of socialism and the resurgence of Latvian nationalism gave this Europe-wide logic new life, simultaneously reproducing and challenging it. Her work makes explicit what is only implied in the 1977 Kraftwerk song, "Europe Endless": hierarchies prevail in European public and political life even as tolerance is touted by politicians and pundits as one of Europe's chief virtues.School of Europeanness shows how post-Cold War liberalization projects in Latvia contributed to the current crisis of political liberalism in Europe, providing deep ethnographic analysis of the power relations in Latvia and the rest of Europe, and identifying the tension between exclusive polities and inclusive values as foundational of Europe's political landscape. 606 $aLiberalism$zLatvia 606 $aToleration$xPolitical aspects$zLatvia 606 $aMinorities$zLatvia 606 $aPost-communism$zLatvia 607 $aLatvia$xPolitics and government$y1991- 607 $aEurope$xRelations$zLatvia 610 $aEastern Europe, nationalism, liberalism, postsocialism, minorities, migration. 615 0$aLiberalism 615 0$aToleration$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aMinorities 615 0$aPost-communism 676 $a320.51094796 700 $aDzenovska$b Dace$01515099 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910795410203321 996 $aSchool of Europeanness$93750643 997 $aUNINA
