Alienhood

Více o knize

Exploring the dual meaning of "alien" in American culture, Katarzyna Marciniak delves into how this concept influences perceptions of both foreigners and extraterrestrial beings. Through an analysis of popular culture and various discourses—legal, historical, linguistic, and literary—she investigates the implications of "alienhood" on the lived experiences of migrants, whether documented or undocumented. The book offers a critical examination of the societal narratives surrounding migration and identity.
