How have nations and nationhood become the dominant form of
political organization today? What is the role of culture in
nationalism? In what ways have the ideological development of
nationalisms in the post-colonial world shaped understandings of
contemporary political problems such as the rise of radical Islam,
communalism, and the failure of secular-liberal democracy? This
book offers the first comparative study of two highly significant
anti-colonial nationalisms. Its close analysis of nationalist
discourse in India and Egypt is situated within a new theoretical
framework for studying nationalism, based on a trenchant critique
of theorists such as Benedict Anderson, Ernest Gellner, Eric
Hobsbawm and Anthony Smith.
