Gendering Nationalism

Productively locates sexuality in the nexus of gender and nationalism
Provides fresh insights for students and scholars of sociology, political science, social policy, and communication, gender and migration studies
Demonstrates how ideologies of gender, sexuality and nationalism are constructed differently depending on specific geo-political, social, and historical factors
Sets the agenda for a new wave of research on gendered nationalism with its attention to the fluidity and contradictions of nationalist projects
