Democracy and the Foreigner by Bonnie Honig
Probes the symbolic politics of foreignness. This book 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.
"Honig quite purposely twists the common question concerning whether immigration is good or bad.. [She] provides a new take on foreignness and nation. Highly recommended."--Choice
