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. -

The thesis develops a multi-variate explanatory model that is generalisable yet succinct. -

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. -
Cognitive Aspects of Prejudice
/. biosoc. Sci,, Suppl. 1 (1969), 173-191 COGNITIVE ASPECTS OF PREJUDICE HENRI TAJFEL Department of Psychology, University of Bristol Introduction The diffusion of public knowledge concerning laws which govern the physical, the biological and the social aspects of our world is neither peculiar to our times of mass communications nor to our own culture. These public images are as old as mankind, and they seem to have some fairly universal characteristics. The time of belief in a 'primitive mind' in other cultures has long been over in social anthro- pology. For example, at the turn of the century, Rivers (1905) could still write about differences in colour naming between the Todas and the Europeans in terms of the 'defective colour nomenclature of the lower races' (p. 392). Today, Claude Levi-Strauss (1966) bases much of his work on evidence showing the conceptual complexity of the understanding of the world in primitive cultures rooted in the 'science of the concrete' with its background of magic. As he wrote: To transform a weed into a cultivated plant, a wild beast into a domestic animal, to produce, in either of these, nutritious or technologically useful pro- cesses which were originally completely absent or could only be guessed at; to make stout water-tight pottery out of clay which is friable and unstable, liable to pulverise or crack; to work out techniques, often long and complex, which permit cultivation without soil or alternatively without water; to change toxic roots or seeds into foodstuffs or again to use their poison for hunting, war or ritual—there is no doubt that all these achievements required a genuinely scientific attitude, sustained and watchful interest, and a desire for knowledge for its own sake. -

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. -
