Following Germany's defeat in 1945, communist-dominated Poland incorporated eastern Germany, recognized German citizens of Polish origin as members of the Polish nation, and established a procedure for Volksdeutsche to rejoin the nation. My study focuses on the processes by which both states sought to nationalize these inhabitants of the transnational Polish-German borderlands that in the imaginations of German and Polish nationalists rightfully belonged to their nation. The process of inclusion and exclusion that accompanies the formation of an imagined national community is often marginalized in discussions of the emergence of nations. My goal is to illustrate the complexity of the process, the obstacles it confronts in practice, and the resulting injustices."--Provided by publisher. 651 0 $a Oder-Neisse Line (Germany and Poland) $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85094073 650 0 $a Nationalism $z Germany $x History $y 20th century. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008108267 650 0 $a Nationalism $z Poland $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Germans $z Poland $x History $y 20th century. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008118142 650 0 $a Polish people $z Germany (East) $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $x Territorial questions $z Poland. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85148508 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $x Territorial questions $z Germany. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85148507 651 0 $a Poland $x Boundaries $z Germany. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh92002027 651 0 $a Germany $x Boundaries $z Poland. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh92002280 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217025229.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DBD37A4EFCE711E799AF106097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
