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, and 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, Southeast Asia, sub-Saharan Africa,
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.
