A selection of diverse readings on the subject of nationalism accompanied by scholarly introductions and headnotes, Becoming National takes the subject beyond its "classical" thinkers. While addressing such familiar figures as Herder, Fichte, and Mazzini, the editors have included new approaches to nationalism, including social and scientific studies and cultural studies. The volume tells both where scholars of nationalism have been, but also where they are going.
