Discussing a range of popular as well as highbrow cultural forms, this collection investigates patterns of cross-border cultural exchange that become visible within a variety of genres, regardless of their place in any arbitrarily devised cultural hierarchy. The essays also consider the many interests served, compromised, or negated by the operations of the transnational economy, the movement of culture's raw material across nation-state borders in literal and conceptual terms, and the configuration of a material citizenship attributed to or negotiated around border-crossing cultural objects. Challenging the oversimplification of cultural products labelled either Canadian or American, Reading between the Borderlines contends with the particularities and complications of North American cultural exchange, both historically and in the present.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 624g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 167 x 236 x 26 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780773555136\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44099675291898,"sku":"9780773555136","price":92.82,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/4e088141de62666fd102d597e62f9f85.jpg?v=1625278909","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/reading-between-the-borderlines-cultural-production-and-consumption-across-the-49th-parallel","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
