Nationalism, Netizenship, and History in Nigeria

我的研究探讨了民族主义的叙事是如何在尼日利亚和尼日利亚侨民的离线和在线辩论和构建的。我将探讨非国家行为者如何使用历史的替代叙事与学术和国家叙事形成对比的悠久历史。我感兴趣的是，公共历史、纪念活动和社交媒体（如Twitter/X和Facebook）如何让普通尼日利亚人干预他们自己的尼日利亚民族主义和分离主义运动的历史。

My research explores how narratives of nationalism are debated and constructed both offline and online in Nigeria and the Nigerian diaspora. I will explore the long history of how non-state actors have used alternative narratives of history in contrast to academics and state narratives. I am interested in how public history, commemoration, and social media such as Twitter/X and Facebook allow ordinary Nigerians to intervene with their own histories of Nigerian nationalism and secessionist movements.
