This book addresses a seemingly paradoxical situation. On the one
hand, nationalism from Scotland to the Ukraine remains a resilient
political dynamic, fostering secessionist movements below the level
of the state. On the other, the competence and capacity of states,
and indeed the coherence of nationalism as an ideology, are
increasingly challenged by patterns of globalisation in commerce,
cultural communication and constitutional authority beyond the
state. It is the aim of this book to shed light on the relationship
between these two processes, addressing why the political currency
of nationalism remains strong even when the salience of its
objective - independent and autonomous statehood - becomes ever
more attenuated. The book takes an interdisciplinary approach both
within law and beyond, with contributions from international law,
constitutional law, constitutional theory, history, political
science and sociology. The challenge for our time is considerable.
Global networks grow ever more sophisticated while territorial
borders, such as those in Eastern and Central Europe, become
seemingly more unstable. It is hoped that this book, by bringing
together areas of scholarship which have not communicated with one
another as much as they might, will help develop an ongoing
dialogue across disciplines with which better to understand these
challenging, and potentially destabilising, developments.
