Beyond Nationalism?
NATIONALISM IN QUESTION is an admirable achievement. At once erudite and critically acute, it succeeds in plumbing anew the archaeology of the most significant political construct(ion) of modernity -- as an Idea, a social formation, a mode of producing collective identity -- and in charting its possible futures. Is there anything fresh to be said about one of the most discussed concepts of our epoch? Spencer and Wollman leave no doubt that the answer is yes. Emphatically, engagingly so. - John Comaroff, University of Chicago `This book offers an impressively sustained guide to the complex range of debates around nationalism. Conceptually lucid and empirically informed, it also adds a renewed critical emphasis to the range of current scholarly positions.′ - Gregor Mclennan, University of Bristol
