Nationalisms Old and New - (Explorations in Sociology.) by Kevin J Brehony & Naz Rassool (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

Nationalism is a collection of papers from the British Sociological Association conference, Worlds of the Future. The central themes of the conference were ethnicity and nationalism in the contemporary world. Older discourses on national sovereignty and statehood are evaluated in terms of their validity within a world increasingly defined by transnational integration and global economic competition.
