I was researching and reading some journals online to make sure I got the concept of nation building correct, and found these particularly nice/helpful articles I wanted to share:

They are not exactly about contemporary American designs, but very well-written!

Those are interesting links Suri thanks for sharing. It seems of all the designs a flag can be the most influential in terms of nation building. It is a gathering point a representation of that nations ideologies.
I agree with you, Denali, on flags. Really good point that refreshed my perspective, because for some reason I've kept thinking about federal architecture and monarchal/emperial portraitures more than about flags.
