The Oxford Handbook of the History of Nationalism comprises thirty
six essays by an international team of leading scholars, providing
a global coverage of the history of nationalism in its different
aspects - ideas, sentiments, politics. Every chapter takes the form
of an interpretative essay which, by a combination of thematic
focus, comparison, and regional perspective enables the reader to
understand nationalism as a distinct and global historical subject.
The book covers the emergence of nationalist ideas, sentiments, and
cultural movements before the formation of a world of nation-states
as well as nationalist politics before and after the era of the
nation-state, with chapters covering Europe, the Middle East,
North-East Asia, South Asia, South-East Asia, and the Americas.
Essays on everday national sentiment and race ideas in fascism are
accompanied by chapters on nationalist movements opposed to
existing nation-states, nationalism and international relations,
and the role of external intervention into nationalist disputes
within states. In addition, the book looks at the major challenges
to nationalism: international socialism, religion, pan-nationalism,
and globalization, before a final section considering how
historians have approached the subject of nationalism. Taken
separately, the chapters in this Handbook will deepen understanding
of nationalism in particular times and places; taken together they
will enable the reader to see nationalism as a distinct subject in
modern world history.
