Nations and Democracy

Más información sobre el libro

Exploring the interplay of language and desire, Amanda Machin delves into the concept of the nation as a site of political contestation rather than a fixed entity. By employing the theories of Wittgenstein and Lacan, she challenges prevailing narratives and advocates for a re-examination of national identity. This original work engages with themes of nationalism, democracy, and psychoanalysis, making it essential for theorists and researchers interested in the evolving dynamics of nations in contemporary society.
