Item not Available

Description

This penetrating book re-examines `the project of modernity'.

It seeks to oppose the abstract, idealized vision of modernity with an alternative `ethnographic' understanding.

The book defends an approach to modernity that situates it as embedded in particular and historical contexts.

It examines cases of `popular modernism' in the United States, Britain and colonial Malaysia, drawing out the specific cultural and religious assumptions underlying popular modernism and concludes that modernism is implicated in a diversity of forms of cultural and racial exclusion.
