Synopsis Flagging Patriotism by : Ella Shohat
The question "Why do they hate us?" is one of the most oft-cited puzzles of contemporary American affairs, yet it’s not clear to whom "they" or "us" refers, nor even what "hate" means. In this bold new work, Ella Shohat and Robert Stam take apart the "hate discourse" of right-wing politics, placing it in an international context. How, for example, do other nations love themselves, and how is that love connected to their attitudes toward America? Is love of country "monogamous" or can one love many countries? When can a country’s self-love be a symptom of self-hatred? Drawing upon their extensive experience with South American, European, and Middle Eastern societies, the authors have written a long engagement with a problem that refuses to go away. Flagging Patriotism considers these complex features of "being patriotic," and in so doing insists that the idea of patriotism, instead of being rejected or embraced, be accorded the complex identity it possesses.

Synopsis Capture the Flag by : Woden Teachout
Americans honor the flag with a fervor seen in few other countries: The Stars and Stripes decorate American homes and businesses; wave over sports events and funerals; and embellish everything from politicians' lapels to the surface of the moon. But what does the flag mean? In Capture the Flag, historian Woden Teachout reveals that it has held vastly different meanings over time. It has been claimed by both the right and left; by racists and revolutionaries; by immigrants and nativists. In tracing the political history of the flag from its origins in the American Revolution through the present day, Teachout demonstrates that the shifting symbolism of the flag reveals a broader shift in the definition of American patriotism. A story of a nation in search of itself, Capture the Flag offers a probing account of the flag that has become America's icon.

Synopsis Rap Beyond Resistance by : Cristina Moreno Almeida
This book fills the gap in existing literature by exploring other forms of political discourses in non-Western rap music. Theoretically, it challenges and explores resistance, arguing towards the need for different epistemological frameworks in which to look at narratives of cultural resistance in the Arabic-speaking world. Empirically, it provides an in-depth look at the politics of rap culture in Morocco. Rap Beyond Resistance bridges the humanities and social sciences in order to de-Westernize cultural studies, presenting the political narratives of the Moroccan rap scene beyond secular liberal meanings of resistance. By exploring what is political, this book brings light to a vibrant and varied rap scene diverse in its political discourses–with an emphasis on patriotism and postcolonial national identity–and uncovers different ways in which young artists are being political beyond ‘radical lyrics’.

Synopsis Your Flag and My Flag by : Andreas Bard
Excerpt from Your Flag and My Flag: Patriotic Addresses We furthermore state that we fully com prehend the meaning of true Americanism. It means that we recognize no king but Jus tice. We bow to no crown save Liberty. We have no Kaiser but our conscience. When we set foot on the shores of New York we ceased to be subjects; we became citizens. If any one would look down on the immi grant, he would have to despise the Pilgrim Fathers who came here in the Mayflower. He would have to belittle the pioneers who in all times and climes have blazed the trail of progress. I recall the pointed remark made recently in the United States Senate: A sponge never migrates; it is born and dies upon the same rock, but the game fish finds its way to the headwaters of every creek and river of the earth. Day before yesterday we were all foreigners; today we are all Americans. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
