Summary/Abstract |
This article presents a theoretical framework on discursive nation-building processes in the Chinese and Taiwanese contexts by drawing on key notions in the discourse-theoretical account about identity construction, hegemonic articulation and myth-building, as proposed by prominent scholars of Discourse Theory, like Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe (1985). The framework is based on existing literature as well as findings from two case studies about discourses belonging to two different epochs in Chinese history: (1) Chinese and Taiwanese media narratives about the 1997 Hong Kong handover, published between mid-June and mid-July 1997 and (2) Lectures on Nationalism, presented in 1924 by dr. Sun Yat-sen, an early proponent of Chinese nationalism.

Summary/Abstract |
The following article is divided into two parts, each offering a series of propositions highlighting the effects and implications of organizational naming and labeling practices and their subsequent effects on the framing of terrorist organizations and activity. In the first half, the author will highlight the importance of organizational naming and labeling in terms of how it shapes terrorism discourse. Then, the author will discuss the importance of recognizing the implications of how the events of 11 September 2001 were framed by then president George W. Bush. Important to both discussions is the relevance of organizational communication theory, particularly in terms of individual sensemaking and the communicative constitution of organizations.

The India-Japan Act East Forum signed on 14th of September 2017 has once again brought India’s North Eastern Region (NER) to the forefront of Indian foreign policy. However this time it is not because of any war pertaining to border issues but mainly for the reason of cultivating economic and geostrategic potential of this region.

Summary/Abstract |
The state space concept is part of attempts to dismantle the 'territorial trap' and the concomitant dichotomy between national 'inside' and international 'outside'. This paper contributes to this scholarship by proposing the concept of transnational field as a tool for a nuanced understanding of the intermingling of the national and the global. The paper argues that the formative logic of globalization is not simply the growth of economic interconnections and dependencies, but also the dynamism related to competition and collaboration structuring inclusions, exclusions and awards in transnational fields.
