National Days: Constructing and Mobilising National Identity

Editat de D. McCrone, G. McPherson
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 15 oct 2009
The book shows how national days are best understood in the context of debates about national identity. It argues that national days are contested and manipulated, as well as subject to political, cultural and social pressure. It brings together some of the most recent research on national days and sets it in a comparative context.
