In this episode, I talk to Delia Dumitrica (Erasmus University Rotterdam, the Netherlands) about the way the nation is represented, or flagged, in cities, and how that is often done in ways that are mundane or taken for granted.
Delia’s research focuses on protest communication, digital activism and the discursive construction of the political functions of new media. In addition to this, she has worked on everyday and banal forms of nationalism. You can read Delia’s work on the visual representations of nations in cities here.
