520 From Martin Luther King Day to Waitangi Day, this
collection surveys the gamut of national holidays. The
celebrations analyzed include anniversaries of
independence, religious observances, and government
holidays. The analysis of each national day revolves
around the role that communications play in uniting a
country's citizenry. Entries cover individual countries
but intertwine to provide a holistic view of the topic of
national days. Countries covered: Argentina, Australia,
Canada, China, Ethiopia, Ghana, Japan, Kuwait, New Zealand,
Nigeria, Norway, Romania, Singapore, South Africa, Spain,
Turkey, the Ukraine, and the United States
