- catalog abstract ""State/Nation/Transnation challenges the assumption that transnational movements herald the death of the nation-state per se, arguing rather that they involve a reconfiguration." "This book takes as its main theme the interconnections between conceptions of the state, the nation and the transnation as they are played out in the Asia-Pacific arena - one of the globe's most prominent regions in terms of human mobility and migrations. Grounded in in-depth research, each chapter explores the productive possibilities of the tensions between the nation-state and the transnation. It concludes that while there is potential for transnational forms of activity to challenge the existing power structures of the nation-state, it is also clear that existing axes of power and influence are often maintained, or are reinscribed in new ways." "Containing both theoretical chapters and detailed case studies, this volume will interest students and researchers of migration, the Asia-Pacific and the future of the nation-state."--Jacket.".
