| Abstract
|
:
|
"Using a diverse set of artifacts from both official and popular culture this book looks at the interplay between culture and politics, examining how the state seeks to match territorial and cultural boundaries not just through military coercion and fiscal regulation, but also through a management of identity practices. Callahan applies poststructuralist theory to analyze the powerful dynamic between culture and politics that generates East-West discourse and national identities. Drawing on original ethnographic research and primary source materials, the book sets out a critical methodology with which to study the cultural governance of capitalist modernity from a social, economic and cultural perspective."
