In this issue's 'the Focus', guest editor Ethan Mark explores the context of increasing liberalization and expansion of cross-border flows of human, economic, and intellectual capital, in which scholarship has moved increasingly towards a questioning of the ‘nation’ as the dominant determinant of history, identity, politics, economics, culture, and social life.
