This volume provides cutting-edge analysis of old and new architectures of the nation and its mediated presence in everyday life. In an age of alleged globalisation, nations and nation-states have been claimed to be out-dated. However, the proclamation of the end of the nation (-state) has been premature. Eschewing fashionable obituaries for media, geography and the nation, leading media scholars explore the complex ideological and spatial change in contemporary understandings of the nation. The nation can be a nodal point of media discourse. Hence the power, the politics and the poetics of the nation will be the subject of this book.
