In his important essay Staat und Nation (State and Nation) Karl
Renner presents his model for national-cultural autonomy, with a
two-tier system of government that devolves considerable
non-territorial autonomy to national communities, while sustaining
the administrative unity of the Multination State.
National Cultural Autonomy and its Contemporary Critics provides
the first English translation of State and Nation and brings
together a collection of distinguished and leading political
scientists to provide a detailed and critical assessment of
Renner's theory of national-cultural autonomy. From a variety of
perspectives, the contributors discuss the contemporary validity of
Renner's arguments paying particular attention to theories of
state, liberal democracies, minority nationalism and
multiculturalism, and models of regional integration.
Making an important contribution to the literature on nationalism
and national minorities, this volume will serve as a vital research
tool for students and scholars of nationalism and political theory.
Readers of this volume may also be interested in the forthcoming
companion volume by Ephraim Nimni, Multicultural Nationalism.
