FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Nationality Between Poststructuralism and Postcolonial Theory: A New Cosmopolitanism examines and interrogates recent work on nationality in literal, critical and cultural theory. Focusing on the work of Derrida, Deleuze and Guattari, Kristeva, Spivak, and Bhabha, it explores how, for these theorists, the concepts of community, the new International, nomadism, deterritorialization, cosmopolitanism, hospitality, the native informant, hybridity and postcolonial agency can provoke a different understanding of national identity.

Long Description This work examines the complex and contested intersection of poststructuralist and postcolonial theories in work by key theorists--Derrida, Deleuze and Guattari, Kristeva, Spivak, and Bhabha--and assesses the sometimes difficult relationship that they have with Marxism, feminism, and psychoanalysis. This book also shows how these theorists often challenge each others conclusions about cultural power and dont, as some believe, collectively celebrate "the postnational." Central to these debates are the concepts of community, globalization, cosmopolitanism, Europe and European colonialism, modernity, and postcoloniality. Review Quote Leonard comprehensively and persuasively once and for all brings back to attention the political force of poststructuralism both before and beyond as well as within post-colonial studies. - Professor Peter Childs, University of Gloucestershire, UK Details ISBN1403919127 Short Title NATIONAILTY BETWEEN POSTSTRUCT Pages 198 Language English ISBN-10 1403919127 ISBN-13 9781403919120 Media Book Format Hardcover Year 2005 Imprint Palgrave Macmillan Subtitle A New Cosmopolitanism Place of Publication Gordonsville Country of Publication United States Birth 1967 Edition 2005th DOI 10.1604/9781403919120 AU Release Date 2005-10-28 NZ Release Date 2005-10-28 US Release Date 2005-10-28 UK Release Date 2005-10-28 Illustrations VII, 198 p.
