Reviews
an impressive volume of easy-to-read, clear and concise essays ... an extremely thorough and illuminating book. * Gilles Andreani, Survival *
All students of nationalism will want to possess this volume. Not only are the individual contributions excellent, with useful up-to-date bibliographies, but there is a bonus in the form of helpful chronologies and maps showing the worldwide spread of nationalism. * Krishan Kumar, International Affairs *
Taken at once, the book juxtaposes advances from numerous regional and thematic subfields to open up theoretical vistas for specialists. At the same time, its chapters decorate this theoretical tableau with rich detail. As such the book will engage both students and lay readers. * Eric Kaufmann, LSE Review of Books *
