Why is nationalism so widespread? How does the phenomenon arise?
How can its negative consequences be controlled? This collection of
essays by economists, sociologists, and political scientists from
North America and Europe tries to answer these questions at the
forefront of political discussion. The work differs from others in
that the authors' responses are not based on avowed ideological
perspectives, but are rather drawn from rational-choice analysis,
the foundation of social science. Although each of the contributors
to Nationalism and Rationality takes a distinctive point of view,
the collection as a whole focuses on three subjects - the origins
of nationalism, whether and why it promotes good or evil, and how
to deal with its occasional destructive consequences. Readers will
find provocative insights into nationalism through the
contributors' diverse diagnoses and prescriptions.
