Historical Analysis of "Nationalization" and "Racialization" in the United States

本项目的目的是通过关注种族、性别、民族和阶级的历史和社会因素来分析美国民族国家和民族融合的形成。这导致了最近的一篇文章，“美国和日本民族主义和民族意识的历史分析。在与日本现代化和国家化的比较中，展示了美国民族主义的独特性及其融合过程。这些特征之一是种族定义的民族主义，我们无法在公民民族主义和种族民族主义的框架内理解。加里·格斯特在《美国熔炉》中称之为种族民族主义。这也与以大卫·罗迪格的《白的工资》为起点的白研究的历史观有关。此外，民族主义的阳刚和军国主义性质是另一点。我在文章中讨论了它，“'血腥衬衫'和种族平等的想法：激进的共和党人和内战后的新闻。“这是基于美国人如何记住内战的公共记忆的政治。

The purpose of this project was to analyze the making of nation-state and national integration in the U.S. by focusing on historical and social factors of race, gender ethnicity, and class. This resulted in the recent article, "Historical Analysis on Nationalism and National Consciousness in the U.S. and Japan." During comparing with Japan's modernization and nationalization, the unique characteristics of U.S. nationalism and its integration process were demonstrated. One of these traits was a racially defined nationalism which we couldn't understand in the framework of civic nationalism and ethnic nationalism. Gary Gerstle called it racial nationalism in American Crucible. It also related to the historical viewpoint of whiteness studies which started from David Roediger's Wages of Whiteness. In addition, the masculine and militaristic character of nationalism is another point. I discussed it in the article, "'Bloody shirts' and an Idea of Racial Equality : Radical Republicans and Post-Civil War Journalism." This was based on the politics of public memory of how the Americans remembered the Civil War.
