Carolyn Holmes on "nation- and democracy-building, including the emotional and banal content of symbols of the post-apartheid state, the ways that gender and race condition nascent nationalism, the public performance of nationalism and other group-based identities, integration and sharing of space, language diversity, and the role of democratic functioning including party politics and modes of opposition."

Based on ethnographic and interview-based fieldwork conducted in South Africa in 2012–13.

Carolyn Holmes is Assistant Professor of Political Science and Public Administration at Mississippi State University.
