Debating Nationalism: The Global Spread of Nations by Florian Bieber (English) H

Description: Debating Nationalism by Florian Bieber This concise introduction offers an overview of the global rise and spread of nationalism since the late 18th century. Reflecting on key themes and existing scholarship it presents case studies and primary sources to track the emergence of the modern nation, and understand how nationalism has given rise to phenomena such as identity-based conflict, authoritarian politics and populist movements.Debating Nationalism uses an inclusive perspective that goes beyond a Western European focus to explore how nationalism has expressed itself in nation states and influenced a range of political ideologies over the last 300 years. It engages with the key debates within nationalism studies such as the origins of nations, the mechanisms and actors that reinforce it and the dynamics of ethnic conflict. Using a historical lens to shed light on contemporary issues, it also considers debates around migration, diversity and authoritarian politics found in new nationalism in the modern day.This book includes a dedicated chapter as a guide to key debates and further reading alongside a glossary of terms to help students achieve a holistic understanding of the history of nationalism.

Further Reading and a Guide to Key DebatesIndex Review [A] succinct and readable overview of recent developments within the field of nationalism studies … Probably the best aspect of the book is its very didactic tone. Bieber really makes an effort to explain developments and theories to those who are new to the field, and the book will especially be useful to undergraduate students in a variety of disciplines, such as political science, history, nationalism studies and international relations. * Nations and Nationalism *Debating Nationalism is an excellent and extraordinarily useful short survey of key problems and debates in the history and theory of nationalism. Its skilful mix of conceptual argument and empirical detail makes it especially well-suited to courses in political theory or political science that deal with nationalism, ethno-national conflict, or the place of national identity in contemporary politics. * Paul Hanebrink, Professor of History and Jewish Studies, Rutgers University, USA * Promotional A concise introduction to the rise and spread of nationalism around the world since the late 18th century through key debates, case studies and primary sources.
