Legends of People, Myths of State: Violence, Intolerance, and Political Culture in Sri Lanka and Australia
Bruce Kapferer
The civil war in Sri Lanka and the part that nationalism seemed to play in it inspired the writing of this book some twenty-three years ago. The argument was developed through a comparative analysis of nationalism in Sri Lanka with the author's native Australia.
