520 3  Following independence from Ethiopia, Eritrea's leaders 
       were praised for their success at building a coherent 
       nation, but over the last two decades the government has 
       increasingly turned to coercion particularly by forcing 
       citizens into endless military service. The Struggling 
       State: Teachers, Mass Militarization and the Reeducation 
       of Eritrea is an ethnographic exploration of how citizens'
       redefined their relationship with the nation in response 
       to the state's increased authoritarianism and use of 
       force. Extremes of coercion and control led Eritreans' to 
       imagine the once-heroic ruling party as turning against 
       them, which, in turn unraveled the legitimacy of state-
       produced imaginaries of the nation. The book focuses on 
       teachers, who were situated to do the work of hyphenating,
       or gluing, nation to state but instead had to navigate 
       between their devotion to educating the nation and their 
       discontent with their role in the government program of 
       mass militarization. As teachers confronted their own 
       conflicted imaginaries of the state and questioned what it
       meant to be Eritrean, they reeducated the nation, but not 
       necessarily in the way the government wanted them to.
