Despite many predictions made over the last two hundred years that
nation-states and nationalism are transient phenomena that will
eventually fade away, the historical record and contemporary events
show otherwise. Nationalism still remains the most popular, potent
and resilient ideological discourse and the nation-state the only
legitimate mode of territorial rule. This innovative and concise
book provides an in-depth analysis of the processes involved in the
emergence, formation, expansion and transformation of nation-states
and nationalisms as they are understood today. Sinisa Malesevic
examines the historical predecessors of nation-states (from hunting
and gathering bands, through city-states, to modernizing empires)
and explores the historical rise of organizational and ideological
powers that eventually gave birth to the modern nation-state. The
book also investigates the ways in which nationalist ideologies
were able to envelop the microcosm of family, kin, residential and
friendship networks. Other important topics covered along the way
include: the relationships between nationalism and violence; the
routine character of nationalist experience; and the impacts of
globalization and religious revivals on the transformation of
nationalisms and nation-states. This insightful analysis of
nationalisms and nation-states through time and space will appeal
to scholars and students in sociology, politics, history,
anthropology, international relations and geography.
