Abstract:
This innovative and interdisciplinary text uses paired chapters, first to present the work of key authors in relation to each of a set of key themes--primordialism, modernism, power, and culture--and then to rethink these core concepts. The author engages with the main debates in the field, pointing out limitations in both modernist and primordialist approaches and showing how a clearer conceptualization of power and culture can help clarify our understanding of nationalism.
