Global Perspectives on Nationalism takes an interdisciplinary
approach informed by recent theorisations of nationalism to examine
perennial questions on the topic. The idea of nationalism centres
on questions of ethnicity, culture, religion, language, and access
to resources. What determines consciousness of nationalism? How is
nationalism manifested, shaped, or countered through literary and
cultural productions? The contributors highlight topical areas in
studies of nationalism including ecology, natural resources,
sustainability, globalisation, the Anthropocene, postcolonialism,
indigeneity, folklore, popular culture, and queer theory. They
develop innovative perspectives on nationalism through in-depth
analyses of the theoretical, political, literary, linguistic,
cultural, and ecological dimensions of nationalism in Argentina,
Australia, Bangladesh, Bosnia and Herzegovina, China, Germany,
Greece, India, Indonesia, Lebanon, Nepal, Nigeria, Poland,
Scotland, Turkey, the United States, and elsewhere. This volume
underscores the importance of generative dialogue between
disciplines in assessing the implications of nationalism for
everyday life through five thematic sections: (I) Ethnicity,
Ideology, and Narration; (II) Religion, Identity, and Heritage;
(III) Linguistics, Tradition, and Modernism; (IV) Music, Lyricism,
and Poetics; and (V) Ecology, Environment, and Non-Human Lives.
This book will be of particular value to students and researchers
in philosophy, literary studies, and political theory with
interests spanning ecology, ethnicity, folklore, gender, heritage,
identity, linguistics, nationalism, nationhood, religion, and
sexuality.
