It develops a Modernist approach to nations and nationalism by incorporating Bourdieusian theories of symbolic capital and conflict, to examine how national identity has been constructed and represented in political symbols. Taking case studies of flags, monuments, national heroes, and street art, it critically analyses how a diverse population has interpreted and (re)constructed its national identity throughout the first decade of independence, and how the transition from a context of conflict to peace has influenced such popular imaginings. By examining these processes of identification with a wide range of symbols, the book discusses the numerous challenges that this young nation-state still faces, including victimhood and recognition, democratization and electoral politics, the political role of cosmology and spirituality, and post-colonial generational differences and divisions. | 出版日期 | Book 2019 | 关键词 | nations; nationalism; symbols; Timor-Leste; flags; resistance; nation-building; Fretilin; monuments; memorial | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-98782-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-07529-3 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-98782-8Series ISSN 1759-3735 Series E-ISSN 2752-857X | issn_series | 1759-3735 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2019 |
