This concise introduction offers an overview of the global rise and
spread of nationalism since the late 18th century. Reflecting on
key themes and existing scholarship it presents case studies and
primary sources to track the emergence of the modern nation, and
understand how nationalism has given rise to phenomena such as
identity-based conflict, authoritarian politics and populist
movements. Debating Nationalism uses an inclusive perspective that
goes beyond a Western European focus to explore how nationalism has
expressed itself in nation states and influenced a range of
political ideologies over the last 300 years. It engages with the
key debates within nationalism studies such as the origins of
nations, the mechanisms and actors that reinforce it and the
dynamics of ethnic conflict. Using a historical lens to shed light
on contemporary issues, it also considers debates around migration,
diversity and authoritarian politics found in new nationalism in
the modern day. This book includes a dedicated chapter as a guide
to key debates and further reading alongside a glossary of terms to
help students achieve a holistic understanding of the history of
nationalism.
