Exploring the global character and effects of culture and politics, this journal examines what is cultural about politics and what is political about culture. It analyses how cultural identities, agencies and actors, political issues and conflicts, and global media are linked, characterized, examined and resolved.
Why do people invest so much emotional energy and resources in conflicts over images, symbols, rituals, and other cultural expressions? The answers explored in Culture and Belonging in Divided Societies view such expressions as barriers to or opportunities for inclusion in a divided society's symbolic landscape and political life.
