Pełny opis

"Schooling Passions" explores an important, yet often overlooked dimension of nationalism - its embodied and emotional components. It does so by focusing on another oft-neglected area, that of elementary education in the modern state. Through an ethnographic study of schools in western India, Veronique Benei examines the idioms through which teachers, students, and parents make meaning of their political world. She articulates how urban middle- and lower-class citizens negotiate the processes of self-making through the minutiae of daily life at school and extracurricular activities, ranging from school trips to competitions and parent gatherings.This book shifts the typical focus of attention away from communal violence onto everyday "banal nationalism," and explores the sensory production and daily manufacture of nationhood and citizenship and how nationalism is nurtured in a nation's youth.
