商品簡介
The strain that questions of national identity experience in the face of ethnic and/or religious minorities is the central premise of this series of essays. Lord (philosophy, Charles U., Prague, Czech Republic) has included a long (125 pp.) and somewhat rambling paper (it's a transcript of a lecture originally given at a convention in 1998) on parallel cultures worldwide. The remaining five papers discuss identity, ethnicity, and culture in Transylvania, among the Bulgarian Pomaks and the Poleshuks, in the Donetsk Region of the Ukraine, and in Russia. The contributors teach sociology and history at universities in central Europe. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
