Based on the ethno-symbolist approach to the study of nationalism, this thesis proposes to see the Thai nation as a result of a long process, reflecting the three-phases-model (ethnie , pre-modem and modem nation) for the potential development of a nation as outlined by Anthony Smith.

  • Revisiting Global America: Nationalism in History and Politics
    Editorial USAbroad – Journal of American History and Politics. Vol. 2 (2019) https://doi.org/10.6092/issn.2611-2752/9073 ISSN 2611-2752 Revisiting Global America: Nationalism in History and Politics Published: March 1, 2019 Nationalism has been a defining feature of American history, politics, and international relations. Since its foundation, the United States has created an exceptional, expansive, and open image of itself as the “global nation” founded on a set of seemingly universal principles. The ways Americans have thought about their country have been a tremendous force for overseas expansion and an irresistible attraction for many outsiders. However, despite the success of this model of global, multiracial and multi-ethnic America, or possibly because of it, recent but not unprecedented nationalistic trends have contributed to dispute, contest or even reject its very tenets. The topic has also taken on ur- gency at the historiographical level. Scholars have inevitably looked with renewed interest into US nationalism and its practical, policy manifestations since 9/11. In the last few years, however, the de- bate has become even more intense, with a shift from explaining outcomes to questioning the nature of American identity and patriotism. The seismic waves produced by the last presidential election eventually reached nationalism studies, reinforcing a tendency that had started after the election of Obama: ethnicity, religion, and above all race were brought back as crucial elements in the analysis of the American national community and provided a tool to deconstruct the alternative visions of belonging that find space in the current political and public debate. At the same time, nationalism per se is being refashioned.

  • Nationalism and International Order
    Nationalism and International Order Dr Jaakko Heiskanen Department of Politics and international Studies University of Cambridge MPhil Course Guide for 2021-2022 Course Description The demise of the nation-state and the disappearance of nationalism have been predicted on many occasions, yet they stubbornly refuse to fade away. If anything, the last decade has witnessed an intensification of nationalist rhetoric and a recentring of the nation-state in international politics through practices such as nation-state wall-building and national lockdowns. This course explores the past, present, and possible futures of nationalism and the nation-state from the vantage point of international order. By the end of the course, students will have acquired an excellent understanding of the historical origins and development of nationalism as well as the analytical tools needed to think and write critically about contemporary nationalism. The course is organised into seven seminars of 90-120 minutes. Seminar 1 provides an introduction to the study of nationalism and international order. The remaining six seminars are then loosely clustered into three thematically related pairings. Seminars 2 and 3 are concerned with the historical origins of nationalism and the rise of the nation-state, mainly in the European context. Seminars 4 and 5 shift the focus to the global imperial framework within which the European system of nation- states was embedded and examine the tangled relationship between nationalism, empire, and race from the nineteenth century to the present day. Seminars 6 and 7 consider the future of nationalism and international order by engaging with contemporary debates about globalisation and populism.

  • Nationalism Manuscript NN1549
    Lauenstein, Murer, Boos & Reicher Nationalism, Gender and the Representation ‘Oh motherland I pledge to thee…’: A Study into Nationalism, Gender and the Representation of an Imagined Family Within National Anthems. Nations, Walzer (1967, quoted after Cerulo 1995: 3) notes, have to be ‘imagined before they can be conceived and symbolised before they can be loved’. Even within academic debates, symbolic representations are sometimes at the core of understandings of nationhood: Anderson’s (1983) use of the emblematic Tomb of the Unknown Soldier to illustrate the ‘imagined community’ is a prominent example. Arguably, representations like this are part and parcel of engaging with nations both theoretically as well as empirically. Most theories within nationalism studies employ some kind of metaphor, analogy or other symbolic representation to buttress their claims or make them more easily comprehensible. To provide some examples, Smith's (1991) notion of belonging is strongly linked to understanding nationhood as akin to clans or tribes; Breuilly’s (1993) emphasis on statehood and sovereignty is reminiscent of bureaucratic imagery; and when Gellner (2006) stresses the importance of a common culture, a state-sponsored educational programme comes to mind. Given that inventing national symbols and traditions is an inherent part of nation-building (Hobsbawn 1990), finding them mirrored in academic debates is hardly surprising. While analysing the analogies drawn on by scholars in the field of nationalism studies would be a fascinating project in its own right, the aim of this paper is somewhat different. Firstly, in revisiting some of the major feminist critiques levelled against prominent theories on nationhood, we aim to illustrate how some imaginations of nationhood will lead us to – deliberately or not – omit crucial differences and inequalities within the nation.

  • Maghrib Experiences in Arab Nationalism Studies:Literature
    『アラブ・ナショナリズムと国家形成:マグリブの事例』調査研究報告書, 日本 貿易振興機構アジア経済研究所, 2019 年. 第 1 章 Maghrib Experiences in Arab Nationalism Studies: Literature Review Shoko WATANABE Area Studies Center, IDE-JETRO, Japan PRELIMINARY STUDY NOT FOR CITATION OR QUOTATION Abstract This paper reviews studies on modern Arab nationalism with a special focus on case studies of Maghribian countries (i.e., Algeria, Tunisia, and Morocco). As the majority of studies concerning Arab nationalism published in English have been built on Mashriqian historical cases, Arab nationalism has been understood as having a secular, supra-state identity as opposed to a religious identity (e.g., Muslim identity) on the one hand, and territorial nationalism based on loyalty to individual nation-states (e.g., Egyptian, Syrian, Iraqi, and Palestinian nationalism) on the other hand. However, Maghribian experiences provide us with more complex realities regarding the history of Arab nationalism. Studying Arab nationalism with particular attention to long-ignored regional features allows us to understand different variations of the Arab nationalist movement, which should be considered as a multiform, multifunctional, and globally interactive phenomenon. Keywords Maghrib, Nationalism, Arab, Islam Introduction The purpose of this paper is to investigate the features of modern nationalism in the Maghrib compared with other parts of the Arab world by analyzing studies on this and related subjects, published in both English and French. First, we will review the development of Arab nationalism studies in the context of nationalism studies in general. Second, we will summarize the characteristics of Maghribian nationalism by 1 referring to some recent important publications. Finally, we will examine a possible way to study Maghribian nationalism by taking global historical contexts into consideration.

  • Constructing Collective Identities and Solidarity in Premiers' Early
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1057/s41599-021-00805-x OPEN Constructing collective identities and solidarity in premiers’ early speeches on COVID-19: a global perspective ✉ Martina Berrocal 1 , Michael Kranert 2, Paola Attolino3, Júlio Antonio Bonatti Santos4, Sara Garcia Santamaria5, Nancy Henaku6, Aimée Danielle Lezou Koffi7, Camilla Marziani 8, Viktorija Mažeikienė9, Dasniel Olivera Pérez10, Kumaran Rajandran11 & Aleksandra Salamurović12 1234567890():,; The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted a unique global experience, arousing both exclu- sionary nationalistic and inclusionary responses of solidarity. This article aims to explore the discursive and linguistic means by which the COVID-19 pandemic, as a macro-event, has been translated into local micro-events. The analysis studies the global pandemic through the initial statements of 29 leading political actors across four continents. The aim is to examine discursive constructions of solidarity and nationalism through the social representation of inclusion/exclusion of in-, out-, and affiliated groups. The comparative analysis is based on the theoretical and methodological framework of the socio-cognitive approach to critical discourse analysis and is informed by argumentation theory and nationalism studies. The results of our analysis suggest that leaders have constructed the virus as the main outgroup through the metaphors of the pandemic-as-war and the pandemic-as-movement which have entered the national space. Faced with this threat, these speeches have discursively con- structed the nation-as-a-team as the main in-group and prioritized (1) a vertical type of solidarity based on nationhood and according to governmental plans; (2) exclusionary soli- darity against rule-breakers; (3) horizontal solidarity that is both intergenerational and among family members, and (4) transnational solidarity.

  • The Roots of Nationalism
    HERITAGE AND MEMORY STUDIES 1 HERITAGE AND MEMORY STUDIES Did nations and nation states exist in the early modern period? In the Jensen (ed.) field of nationalism studies, this question has created a rift between the so-called ‘modernists’, who regard the nation as a quintessentially modern political phenomenon, and the ‘traditionalists’, who believe that nations already began to take shape before the advent of modernity. While the modernist paradigm has been dominant, it has been challenged in recent years by a growing number of case studies that situate the origins of nationalism and nationhood in earlier times. Furthermore, scholars from various disciplines, including anthropology, political history and literary studies, have tried to move beyond this historiographical dichotomy by introducing new approaches. The Roots of Nationalism: National Identity Formation in Early Modern Europe, 1600-1815 challenges current international scholarly views on the formation of national identities, by offering a wide range of contributions which deal with early modern national identity formation from various European perspectives – especially in its cultural manifestations. The Roots of Nationalism Lotte Jensen is Associate Professor of Dutch Literary History at Radboud University, Nijmegen. She has published widely on Dutch historical literature, cultural history and national identity.

  • Or Nationalism and Religion? Some Reflections on the Relationship Between Religion and Nationalism
    genealogy Editorial Introduction: Religion and Nationalism? Or Nationalism and Religion? Some Reflections on the Relationship between Religion and Nationalism Peter C. Mentzel Independent Researcher, Liberty Fund, Inc. 11301 N. Meridian Street Carmel, Indianapolis, IN 46032-4564, USA; [email protected] Received: 1 September 2020; Accepted: 22 September 2020; Published: 28 September 2020 Abstract: This essay is the introduction to the special issue of Genealogy, “For God and Country: Essays on Nationalism and Religion.” It poses the question of what relationship, if any, nationalism has to religion, and then briefly reviews the history and current state of the scholarship on the topic. This essay then introduces the seven essays making up the special edition. It concludes by observing that, overall, the collection suggests that while religion and nationalism are more closely related than previously held, they nevertheless remain two distinct phenomena. Keywords: nationalism; religion; Islamism 1. Introduction Religion and nationalism are both powerful and important markers of individual identity, but the relationship between the two has been a source of considerable debate. Much, if not most, of the work done in nationalism studies has been based, at least implicitly, on the idea that religion, as a genealogical carrier of identity, was displaced with the coming of secular modernity by nationalism. Or, to put it another way, national identity, and its ideological manifestation, nationalism, filled the void left in people’s self-identification as religion retreated in the face of secular modernity. While a few perceptive students of the subject (e.g., Anthony Smith, Steven Grosby, and Adrian Hastings) made room in their studies for religion, the dominant narrative was that nationalism was a modern phenomenon that has supplanted religion as the primary carrier of identity for most people.
