Redresses the balance on the human and cultural aspects of the idea
of being Basque in the modern world. Everyday nationalism, the
human and cultural aspects of identity, is a neglected subject in
the literature on nationalism in Europe. Jeremy MacClancy redresses
the balance in this unusual and sharp book on the human and
cultural aspects of the idea of being Basque in the modern world.
The style is fresh and colloquial, dealing with several of the
kinds of issues that usually appear in popular magazines - cuisine,
football, art and graffiti - but the treatment is serious and
illustrative of underlying currents in social life. MacClancy
argues that the ethnographic understanding of nationalisms, rather
than the orthodox studies of ideology, political parties, social
classesand centre-periphery clashes - offers a more nuanced
comprehension of the lived reality of people in areas where
nationalism is a significant force. This is very much nationalism
from the bottom up. JEREMY MACCLANCY is Professor of Social
Anthropology at Oxford Brookes University Series editors: Wendy
James & Nick Allen
