Democracy and the Foreigner

Democracy and the Foreigner

Bonnie Honig2003
Instead of lauding the achievements of individual foreigners, she probes a much larger issue - the symbolic politics of foreignness. In doing so she shows not only how our debates over foreignness help shore up our national or democratic identities, but how anxieties endemic to liberal democracy themselves animate ambivalence toward foreignness."--BOOK JACKET.
