In the eighteenth century, before a national political movement
took hold in either the United States or Norway, both countries
were agrarian societies marked by widespread private land
ownership. Tracing the emergence and development of national
ideology in each, Eirik Magnus Fuglestad argues that land ownership
became tied up with these national ideologies and was ultimately a
central driver of nationalism. In this book, the United States and
Norway emerge as propertied communities, shaped by historical
narratives of self-government and by property regimes that linked
popular sovereignty with land ownership. Covering the
mid-eighteenth century through industrialization in the nineteenth
century, this book lays the groundwork for understanding the rise
of nationalism as an agrarian, landed phenomenon, which later
became the foundation of industrial society.
