Originally published in 2003, this book addresses the rarely
explored subject of the reciprocal relationships between
nationalism, nation and state-building, and economic change.
Analysis of the economic element in the building of nations and
states cannot be confined to Europe, and therefore these diverse
yet interlinked case-studies cover all continents. Authors come to
contrasting conclusions, some regarding the economic factor as
central, while others show that nation-states came into being
before the constitution of a national market. The essays leave no
doubt that the nation-state is an historical phenonemon and as such
is liable to 'expiry' both through the process of globalisation and
through the development of a 'cyber-society' which evades state
control. By contrast, developments in southeastern Europe, the
former USSR, and parts of Africa and the Far East show that
building the nation-state has not run its course.
