First published in 1944, Nationality in History and Politics
unpacks the vagueness of terms such as nationality, national
consciousness, national character, national will, national
self-determination, etc. The phenomena underlying these terms are
exceedingly complex, and writers frequently shift the sense
according to the interest defended. National consciousness
comprises a number of different aspirations which, however, can be
summed up as a striving for national personality. The book
investigates in detail the correlations between those aspirations
and such factors as race, language, religion, territory and State,
and examines in particular the social background of modern
nationalism. The chapters give the sociology of national sentiment
and national traditions, usually called national character, against
a wide historical background. The latter part of the book treats
the evolution of ideas on nationality and on supranational aims
from the Middle Ages to our own time, and the influence of the
doctrines of great thinkers on the national ideology of the
principal nations. This book will be of interest to students of
history, political science, sociology and psychology.
