About National Matters: Materiality, Culture, and Nationalism

National Matters investigates the role of material culture and materiality in defining and solidifying national identity in everyday practice. Examining a range of and “things and “–from art objects, clay fragments, and broken stones to clothing, food, and urban green space–the contributors to this volume explore the importance of matter in making the nation appear real, close, and important to its citizens. Symbols and material objects do not just reflect the national visions deployed by elites and consumed by the masses, but are themselves important factors in the production of national ideals.Through a series of theoretically grounded and empirically rich case studies, this volume analyzes three key aspects of materiality and the relationship between objects and national institutions, the way commonplace objects can shape a national ethos, and the everyday practices that allow individuals to enact and embody the nation. In giving attention to the agency of things and the capacities they afford or foreclose, these cases also challenge the methodological orthodoxies of cultural sociology. Taken together, these essays highlight how the and “material turn and ” in the social sciences pushes conventional understanding of state and nation-making processes in new directions.
