About the book

Ethnicity and Nationalism in Africa features contributions by leading scholars in the field of ethnicity and nationalism who all take 'constructivist' approaches to identity. The volume addresses the various ways in which constructivism is invoked, and raises two questions: does constructivism constitute a distinctive way of thinking about ethnicity and nationalism? And what is the usefulness of constructivist approaches with regard to contemporary politics? The contributors reflect upon ongoing methodological debates in ethnography, historiography and political theory. The debate is inter-disciplinary, critical and innovative, and should be of value to anyone interested in the study of ethnicity and nationalism.
