Perspectives on nationalism and war

"Both liberal and Marxist theories predicted the withering away of nationalism; yet, in the late twentieth century, it has re-emerged as a major touchstone of conflict. While old theories have been discredited by facts, politicians, academics, journalists, and policy practitioners stumble along using outmoded ideas about the politics of identity."--BOOK JACKET. "This volume considers recent studies that move beyond primordialism and its antithesis, social constructivism, to search for new insights to illuminate the nature of nationalism and links to war. The authors also delve into the role of shared interests; the history of peoples, elites and states; political imperatives; propaganda; and psychological predispositions."--BOOK JACKET.
