Summary

The conclusion summarizes the main findings of the book and explores the ambivalent nature of national identity in a transnational world. It argues that the burial dilemmas of minority communities offer a window into the complexities of belonging and membership in an international system that is ordered by nation-states. The death of an individual and the commemorative practices accompanying it make visible a dense web of attachments and allegiances to particular communities and places. Through burial practices, individuals signal who they are, what they value, and where they belong.
