Abstract

A review of the scholarship appearing in National Identities over its first 10 years reveals that increased theoretical and methodological dialogue between US and other international scholars of collective identity construction is in order. In that spirit, this essay discusses areas in which increased dialogue would likely prove fruitful: scholarship on public memory and memorialisation, presidential discourse, religious rhetoric and narrative theory.
