Description

Product Description In School of Europeanness, Dace Dzenovska argues that Europe’s political landscape is shaped by a fundamental tension between the need to exclude and the requirement to profess and institutionalize the value of inclusion. Nowhere, Dzenovska writes, is this tension more glaring than in the former Soviet Republics. Using Latvia as a representative case, School of Europeanness is a historical ethnography of the tolerance work undertaken in that country as part of postsocialist democratization efforts. Dzenovska contends that the collapse of socialism and the resurgence of Latvian nationalism gave this Europe-wide logic new life, simultaneously reproducing and challenging it. Her work makes explicit what is only implied in the 1977 Kraftwerk song, "Europe Endless": hierarchies prevail in European public and political life even as tolerance is touted by politicians and pundits as one of Europe’s chief virtues. School of Europeanness shows how post–Cold War liberalization projects in Latvia contributed to the current crisis of political liberalism in Europe, providing deep ethnographic analysis of the power relations in Latvia and the rest of Europe, and identifying the tension between exclusive polities and inclusive values as foundational of Europe’s political landscape. Review "School of Europeanness has enough originality, as well as empirical data, to appeal to a wide range of scholars from different disciplines, including anthropology, politics, and international relations." Author: Vera Tolz, University of Manchester "School of Europeanness is certainly an innovative and well-conceived book and has a considerable capacity to impact how we think about postsocialist societies, their directions of past and future social change." Author: Timofey Agarin, Queens University, Belfast "School of Europeanness is written with intellectual verve and imagination. Dace Dzenovska argues that the frames of European belonging, national community, tolerance, and liberalism that have been applied in Latvia in the postsocialist decades have reproduced structures of exclusion and dominance in the relationship between a 'good European core' and a 'not European enough' periphery." Author: Kevin Platt, University of Pennsylvania About the Author Dace Dzenovska is Associate Professor in the Anthropology of Migration at the University of Oxford Centre on Migration, Policy, and Society.
