Pease\u003c\/b\u003e (Editor)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNational narratives create imaginary relations within imagined communities called national peoples. But in the American narrative, alongside the nexus of belonging established for the national community, the national narrative has represented other peoples (women, blacks, \"foreigners\", the homeless) from whom the property of nationness has been removed altogether and upon whose differences from them the national people depended for the construction of their norms. Dismantling this opposition has become the task of post-national (Post-Americanist) narratives, bent on changing the assumptions that found the \"national identity.\" \u003cbr\u003eThis volume, originally published as a special issue of \u003ci\u003ebounrary 2, \u003c\/i\u003e focuses on the process of assembling and dismantling the American national narrative(s), sketching its inception and demolition. The contributors examine various cultural, political, and historical sources--colonial literature, mass movements, epidemics of disease, mass spectacle, transnational corporations, super-weapons, popular magazines, literary texts--out of which this narrative was constructed, and propose different understandings of nationality and identity following in its wake. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eContributors.\u003c\/i\u003e Jonathan Arac, Lauren Berlant, Robert J.
