{"product_id":"decolonisation-identity-and-nation-in-david-kenrick-9783030326975","title":"Decolonisation, Identity and Nation in Rhodesia, 1964-1979: A Race Against Time","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book explores concepts of decolonisation, identity, and nation in the white settler society of Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) between 1964 and 1979. It considers how white settlers used the past to make claims of authority in the present. It investigates the white Rhodesian state's attempts to assert its independence from Britain and develop a Rhodesian national identity by changing Rhodesia's old colonial symbols, and examines how the meaning of these national symbols changed over time. Finally, the book offers insights into the role of race in Rhodesian national identity, showing how portrayals of a 'timeless' black population were highly dependent upon circumstance and reflective of white settler anxieties. Using a comparative approach, the book shows parallels between Rhodesia and other settler societies, as well as other post-colonial nation-states and even metropoles, as themes and narratives of decolonisation travelled around the world. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Kenrick\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3030326977\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783030326975\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/13\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 281\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.11lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.69d","brand":"David Kenrick","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48089062211839,"sku":"9783030326975","price":119.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fa4721cf-2168-46b0-88aa-976e7578ac18.jpg?v=1769107987","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/decolonisation-identity-and-nation-in-david-kenrick-9783030326975","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
