Lyrical Nationalism in Post-Apartheid Namibia explores how young people living in a former ethnic homeland in post-apartheid Namibia imagine the nation through songs they compose and perform. The author argues that these Oshiwambo-speaking youth draw on conflicting ideologies—hierarchical and egalitarian, nationalist and cosmopolitan—to construct a multifaceted sense of national identity, and she shows how their vision of the nation is deeply rooted in local history and culture even though it is framed as neutrally national.
