Walled States, Waning Sovereignty - Brown, Wendy

Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; appears unread; Brown reflects on the proliferation of nation-state walls in a time of eroded nation-state sovereignty and intensifying transnational powers unleashed by globalization. In a rare combination of powerful theory and precise historical political and economic analysis. This book provides a new account of nation-state walling as a distinctive contemporary phenomenon. For Brown, the frenzy of wall building today reveals crucial predicaments of political power and desire emerging from the waning of sovereignty including new political legitimacy deficits: new citizen anxieties and new fusion of state and nonstate violence.
