Review "Indeed, Sneath's unique contribution to the research on Mongolia comes from — although by no means exclusively — his exceptionally fluent and dynamic knowledge of the histories of the Mongols, not just the current and recent socialist, but also the ancient." - Manduhai Buyandelger, The Journal of Asian Studies, 2020 Long Description A distinctive analytical perspective, combining constructionist social theory, political economy and historically-informed anthropology. The study aims to compliment the two traditions within scholarship on Mongolia: historical treatments and contemporary studies. It offers a critical re-examination of nationalist history to explain the construction of Mongolian public culture and contemporary preoccupations with notions of local and national 'homelands' Review Quote "Indeed, Sneath's unique contribution to the research on Mongolia comes from -- although by no means exclusively -- his exceptionally fluent and dynamic knowledge of the histories of the Mongols, not just the current and recent socialist, but also the ancient." - Manduhai Buyandelger, The Journal of Asian Studies , 2020 Details ISBN9462989567 Publisher Amsterdam University Press Series North East Asian Studies Year 2018 ISBN-10 9462989567 ISBN-13 9789462989566 Format Hardcover Pages 226 Publication Date 2018-11-15 Short Title Mongolia Remade Language English UK Release Date 2018-11-15 Imprint Amsterdam University Press Place of Publication Amsterdam Country of Publication Netherlands Illustrations 5 Illustrations, black and white Author Franck Billé Subtitle Post-socialist National Culture, Political Economy, and Cosmopolitics Alternative 9789048542130 DEWEY 320.95173 Audience Professional & Vocational We've got thisAt The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.With fast shipping, low prices, friendly service and well over a million items - you're bound to find what you want, at a price you'll love! 30 DAY RETURN POLICYNo questions asked, 30 day returns!
