Paperback. Too often, scholars treat transnationalism as a conflict in which the local, regional, and national give way to globalized identity. As these varied studies of German cities show, though, the urban environment is actually a site of trans-localism that is not merely oppositional, but that adapts itself dialectically to the forces of globalization. Editor(s): Diefendorf, Jeffry M.; Ward, J. Series: Studies in European Culture and History. Num Pages: 286 pages, biography. BIC Classification: HBG; HBJD; HBL; HBTB.
