What is Making It National: Nationalism and Australian popular culture (Australian Cultural Studies) about?
__Making it National__ argues that we need to rethink the way national identity is constructed in Australia today. Graeme Turner takes a series of recent instances - the mythologising of Bond and the larrikin entrepreneurs, the Spycatcher trials, Maralinga and the Bicentenary - showing how popular images of national identity are used to serve specific rather than national interests.'Graeme Turner's writing has a remarkable power to engage its readers with all the immediacy, vividness and drama of our very best journalism, while putting cultural theory to work in new and creative ways.' - __Meaghan Morris__'Making it National could be to the 1990s what Richard White's Inventing Australia was to the 1980s.' - __Tony Bennett, Institute for Cultural Policy Studies, Griffith University__
