In this classic study, Christopher Goscha shows that Vietnamese of all political colours came remarkably close to building a modern national identity based on the colonial model of Indochina while Lao and Cambodian nationalists rejected this precisely because it represented a Vietnamese entity. Specialists of French colonial, Vietnamese, Southeast Asia and nationalism studies will all find much of value in Goscha's provocative rethinking of the relationship between colonialism and nationalism in Indochina.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFirst published in 1995 as Vietnam or Indochina? Contesting Concepts of Space in Vietnamese Nationalism, this remarkable study has been through a major revision and is augmented with new material by the author and a foreword by Eric Jennings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nordic Institute of Asian Studies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47059287048432,"sku":"9788776940690","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9788776940690_p0.jpg?v=1763751478","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9788776940690","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
