{"product_id":"worlding-the-western","title":"Worlding the Western: Contemporary US Western Fiction and the Global Community","description":"\u003ci\u003eWorlding the Western\u003c\/i\u003e views the fiction of the Western United States as a focal point for a reexamination of the consequences of the exceptionalism and closed borders of the Trump Era. At a time of bounded individualism, new nativism, climate emergency, and migration crises, author Neil Campbell argues that fiction offers opportunities to challenge the dark side of globalization. He proposes worlding as a different and more open form of politics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Diversity, disparity, and opposition are central to the dynamic frictional fiction considered in this book. The American West provides a powerful test case in which these features are present and yet, historically, have often been masked or denied in the rush toward unanimity and nation building. Worlding is, therefore, a positive, critical concept through which to view the notion of a single world under pressure.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"None","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46256902897874,"sku":"9781647790554","price":58.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Kobo eBook","offer_id":46256902930642,"sku":"a44a0d99-2541-3a48-80af-da81305be0f8","price":46.09,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/8980\/5233\/files\/1_9fa6f0e0-0d63-43c9-8232-f4a0c49970d7.jpg?v=1762876452","url":"https:\/\/www.indigo.ca\/products\/worlding-the-western","provider":"Indigo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
