States routinely and readily exploit the grey area between
sentiments of national affinity and hegemonic emotions geared to
nationalist aggression. In this book, Arshin Adib-Moghaddam focuses
on the use of Iranian identity to offer a timely exploration into
the psychological and political roots of national identity and how
these are often utilised by governments from East to West.
Examining this trend, both under the Shah as well as by the
governments since the 1979 Iranian revolution, Adib-Moghaddam's
analysis is driven by what he terms 'psycho-nationalism', a new
concept derived from psychological dynamics in the making of
nations. Through this, he demonstrates how nationalist ideas
evolved in global history and their impact on questions of
identity, statecraft and culture. Psycho-nationalism describes how
a nation is made, sustained and 'sold' to its citizenry and will
interest students and scholars of Iranian culture and politics,
world political history, nationalism studies and political
philosophy.
