Mayar further probes how children's diverse patterns of consuming, relating to, and appropriating the \"truths\" that maps represent turned cartography into a site of personal and political contention. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo investigate where in the world the United States imagined itself at the end of the nineteenth century, this book calls for new modes of mapping the United States as it studies the nation on regional, hemispheric, and global scales. By examining the multilayered liaison between imperial pedagogy and geopolitical literacy across a wide range of archival evidence, Mayar delivers a careful microhistorical study of U.S. empire. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 256\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.53 x 9.3 x 6.2 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 29, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47505144152242,"sku":"9781469667287","price":60.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/3891\/1666\/files\/K1REMHNoeDFVcGhVeW1qMy95S0NUUT09_3311678b-7f31-4213-9ba4-95fd507e2c89.webp?v=1779523200","url":"https:\/\/box.dadyminds.org\/products\/citizens-and-rulers-of-the-world-the-american-child-and-the-cartographic-pedagogies-of-empire-paperback","provider":"DADYMINDS BOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
