Philip Schwyzer Literature, 2004 The Tudor era has long been associated with the
Nationalism, rise of nationalism in England, yet nationalist writing
and Memory in this period often involved the denigration and
outright denial of Englishness. Philip Schwyzer
argues that the ancient, insular, and imperial nation
imagined in the works of writers such as
Shakespeare and Spenser was not England, but
Britain. Disclaiming their Anglo-Saxon ancestry, the
English sought their origins in a nostalgic vision of
British antiquity. Focusing on texts including The
Faerie Queene, English and Welsh antiquarian
works, The Mirror for Magistrates, Henry V and King
Lear, Schwyzer charts the genesis, development and
disintegration of British nationalism in the sixteenth
and early seventeenth centuries. An important
contribution to the expanding scholarship on early
modern Britishness, this study gives detailed
attention to Welsh texts and traditions, arguing that
Welsh sources crucially influenced the development
of English literature and identity.
Catherine Frost Morality and 2006 This book takes a unique approach to explore the
Nationalism moral foundations of nationalism. Drawing on
nationalist writings and examining almost 200 years
of nationalism in Ireland and Quebec, the author
develops a theory of nationalism based on its role in
representation.
The study of nationalism has tended towards the
construction of dichotomies arguing, for example,
that there are political and cultural, or civic and
ethnic, versions of the phenomenon. However, as
an object of moral scrutiny this bifurcation makes
nationalism difficult to work with. This book takes a
unique approach to explore the moral foundations
of nationalism. The author draws on nationalist
writings to see how nationalists themselves argued
for their cause and examines almost two hundred
years of nationalism in two well-known cases,
Ireland and Quebec. The author identifies which
themes, if any, are common across the various
forms that nationalism can take and then goes on to
develop a theory of nationalism based on its role in
representation. This representation-based approach
provides both a basis for the moral claim of
nationalism while at the same time identifying
grounds on which this claim can be evaluated and
limited. It will be of strong interest to political
theorists, especially those working on nationalism,
multiculturalism and minority rights. The special
focus in the book on the Irish and Quebec cases also
makes it relevant reading for specialists in these
 Page 2 of 6

fields as well as for other area studies where

nationalism is an issue.
Brian Porter When 2000 With this book, Porter offers readers a new
Nationalism explanation for the emergence of xenophobic,
Began to Hate: authoritarian nationalism in Europe. Focusing on
Imagining 19th-century Poland, he traces the transformation
Modern Politics of revolutionary patriotism into a violent anti-
in Nineteenth Semitic ideology. Instead of deterministically
Century Poland attributing this charge to the "forces of
modernization," Porter argues that the language of
hatred and discipline was central to the way
"modernity" itself was perceived--or perhaps
"imagined"--by fin-de-siecle intellectuals.

Colin Kidd British 1999 This book examines the status and uses of ethnicity
Identities in political debate during the seventeenth and
before eighteenth centuries, the era that immediately
Nationalism: preceded the onset of modern racialist and
Ethnicity and nationalist thinking. Ranging widely across the
Nationhood in political cultures of England, Scotland, Ireland and
the Atlantic revolutionary America, it also considers European
World, 1600- influences and comparisons as well as engaging
1800 historically with current debates over nationalism
and identity.
Patricia E. Chu Race, 2007 Twentieth-century authors were profoundly
Nationalism, influenced by changes in the way nations and states
and the State in governed their citizens. The development of state
the British and administrative technologies allowed Western states
American to identify, track and regulate their populations in
Modernism unprecedented ways. Patricia E. Chu argues that
innovations of form and style developed by Anglo-
American modernist writers chart anxieties about
personal freedom in the face of increasing
governmental controls. Chu examines a diverse set
of texts and films, including works by T. S. Eliot,
Katherine Mansfield, Zora Neale Hurston and
others, to explore how modernists perceived their
work and their identities in relation to state power.
Additionally, she sheds light on modernists' ideas
about race, colonialism and the postcolonial, as race
came increasingly to be seen as a political and
 Page 3 of 6

governmental construct. This book offers a powerful

critique of key themes for scholars of modernism,
American literature and twentieth-century
literature.
John Alexander Nations Before 1982 In search of an explanation of how a sense of ethnic
Armstrong Nationalism identity evolves to create the concept of nation,
Armstrong analyses Islamic and Christian cultures
from antiquity to the nineteenth century. He
explores the effects of institutions--the city, imperial
polity, bureaucratic imperatives of centralization,
and language divisions--on the development of
ethnicity. Political science furnishes the focus,
anthropology and sociology provide the conceptual
framework, and history affords the evidence.
Yael Tamir Liberal 1993 I feel obliged due to the less-than-illuminating
Nationalism customer reviews to say something about this
wonderful book. First, there are not that many "big
words"--but her discussion of nationalism and/in
the liberal welfare state *is* pitched at an academic
level (this is, after all, an academic book), in part
because what she wants to say draws on many
other theorists (like Rawls most memorably, as
when she argues that Rawls' principles of justice
[esp. distributive justice] cannot be justified without
underlying nationalist feelings of togetherness). It is
actually quite a short read (the book is not long),
and very informative. Tamir argues that nationalist
sentiments can animate our commitments to social
justice [she even makes a surprising and compelling
case that they already DO in modern liberal welfare
states in her chapter "A Hidden Agenda"]--and I like
the way she argues that this does not stop at state
borders. She gives the example of Jews in Israel
helping Jews in Ethiopia. This example allows her to
claim that "recognizing the binding power of
associative obligations [which she claims come with
nationalism] increases rather than lessens the scope
of our obligations to help others" (100). I don't
agree with this book--mainly because I do not
consider myself a member of any particular nation,
and yet, as a member of the wealthiest nation-state
in the world, I see myself as having a strong moral
obligation to contribute part of the money I make to
poorer people of other nations. But Tamir makes a
very strong case to the contrary.
Margaret The Ethics of 2001 Blending a philosophical discussion of the ethical
Moore Nationalism merits and limits of nationalism, a detailed
understanding of nationalist aspirations, and a
variety of national conflict zones, this outstanding
book discusses the controversial and contemporary
issues of rights of secession. It also addresses the
 Page 4 of 6

policies of the state in privileging a particular

national group, the kinds of accommodations of
minority nationals, and multi-cultural identity
groups that are justifiable and appropriate. These
insights are then applied to two central nationalist
aspirations: nation-building and national self-
determination projects.
Ahmed Rashid The Resurgence 1995 Kazakhstan, Kirgystan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and
of Central Asia: Uzbekistan have all become independent states in
Islam or central Asia, following the break-up of the USSR. All
Nationalism? have Muslim majorities and ancient histories, but
are otherwise very different. This book provides an
introduction to the region. Rashid gives a history of
each country, including its incorporation into Tsarist
Russia to the present day. He provides basic socio-
economic information and explains the diverse
political situations. He focuses primarily on the
underlying issues confronting these societies: the
legacy of Soviet rule; ethnic tensions; the position of
women; the future of Islam; the question of nuclear
proliferation; and the fundamental choices over
economic strategy, political system and external
orientation which lie ahead.
Joseph R. The Historical 2009 This study examines a selection of Chesterton’s
McCleary Imagination of novels, poetry, and literary criticism and outlines
G.K. the distinctive philosophy of history that emerges
Chesterton: from these writings. Looking at Chesteron's
Locality, relationship with and influence upon authors
Patriotism, and including William Cobbett, Sir Walter Scott, Belloc,
Nationalism Shaw, H.G. Wells, Christopher Dawson, Evelyn
Waugh, and Marshall McLuhan, McCleary contends
that Chesterton’s recurring use of the themes of
locality, patriotism, and nationalism embodies a
distinctive understanding of what gives history its
coherence. The study concludes that Chesterton’s
emphasis on locality is the hallmark of his historical
philosophy in that it blends the concepts of free will,
specificity, and creatureliness which he uses to
make sense of history.
Ornit Shani Communalism, 2007 Belligerent Hindu nationalism, accompanied by
Caste and recurring communal violence between Hindus and
Hindu Muslims, has become a compelling force in Indian
Nationalism: politics over the last two decades. Ornit Shani's
The Violence in book examines the rise of Hindu nationalism, asking
Gujarat why distinct groups of Hindus, deeply divided by
caste, mobilised on the basis of unitary Hindu
nationalism, and why the Hindu nationalist rhetoric
about the threat of the impoverished Muslim
minority was so persuasive to the Hindu majority.
Using evidence from communal violence in Gujarat,
Shani argues that the growth of communalism was
 Page 5 of 6

not simply a result of Hindu-Muslim antagonisms,

but was driven by intensifying tensions among
Hindus, nurtured by changes in the relations
between castes and associated state policies. These,
in turn, were frequently displaced onto Muslims,
thus enabling caste conflicts to develop and deepen
communal rivalries. The book offers a challenge to
previous scholarship on the rise of communalism,
which will be welcomed by students and
professionals.
Nancy Ordover American 2003 The Nazis may have given eugenics its negative
Eugenics: Race, connotations, but the practice-and the ''science''
Queer that supports it-is still disturbingly alive in America
Anatomy, and in anti-immigration initiatives, the quest for a ''gay
the Science of gene,'' and theories of collective intelligence.
Nationalism Tracing the historical roots and persistence of
eugenics in the United States, Nancy Ordover
explores the political and cultural climate that has
endowed these campaigns with mass appeal and
scientific legitimacy.
American Eugenics demonstrates how biological
theories of race, gender, and sexuality are crucially
linked through a concern with regulating the
''unfit.'' These links emerge in Ordover's
examination of three separate but ultimately
related American eugenics campaigns: early
twentieth-century anti-immigration crusades;
medical models and interventions imposed on (and
sometimes embraced by) lesbians, gays,
transgendered people, and bisexuals; and the
compulsory sterilization of poor women and women
of color. Throughout, her work reveals how
constructed notions of race, gender, sexuality, and
nation are put to ideological uses and how ''faith in
science'' can undermine progressive social
movements, drawing liberals and conservatives
alike into eugenics-based discourse and policies.
Nancy Ordover is an independent scholar who lives
in New York City.
Joshua Searle- The Psychology 2001 Nationalism and other forms of group identity
White of Nationalism underlie many of the destructive conflicts the world
is experiencing today. Particularly puzzling in such
conflicts is their tenacity and viciousness. Why do
people cling to conflicts that are damaging them?
Why are the feelings involved so vehement and
intense? Understanding the fragile nature of
individual and group identity, and how people
perceive threats to identity, can answer these
questions. By analysing nationalism in Quebec,
Armenia and Azerbaijan, and Sri Lanka, this book
shows that addressing the psychological dimensions
 Page 6 of 6

of nationalism can help us understand-and perhaps

to intervene successfully in-nationalist and ethnic
conflicts.
