The twenty-first century is a post-national era

Reference no: EM13690564

Arguably, in the field of Chicana/o Studies, nationalism has served both as a central organizational strategy as well as a source of intense conflict. Moreover, in a contemporary context, nationalism, and thus the nation-state, have witnessed a resurgence in critical attention, despite assertions that the twenty-first century is a post-national era.

Write a 3 page essay in which you offer an assessment of the potential usefulness and limitations of nation, nationalism and the nation-state in regards to the realization of a more just society. In doing so, you may use Cherríe Moraga's "Queer Aztlán: The Reformation of Chicano Tribe," and Melissa Autumn White's "Documenting the Undocumented: Toward a Queer Politics of No Borders," for context, but your essay should articulate its own claims, rather than simply reproducing theirs
