Routledge studies in nationalism and ethnicity
Inhalt:
"Nations and Capital: A Social Discourse for Global Expansion provides a coherent historical and sociological analysis which explores the ultimate reasons for the emergence of nations and nationalism, as a socio-political and geopolitical instrument in the global expansion of capitalism. The author offers a new perspective on understanding the relationship between nationalism, capitalism, and liberalism, and provides a comprehensive critique of classical theories of nationalism, well illustrated by historical examples. He develops an original theory of nations and nationalism, relying on the assumption that the incessant widening of the gap between the capitalist elites and the labouring masses inevitably makes the endless accumulation of capital socially unsustainable. Bridging that gap without changing the structure of society becomes the paramount task for the capitalist system, which therefore introduces a social glue tailored to conceal, but also to cement, the actual polarisation of society. This book will be of great interest to advanced undergraduate students, postgraduate students, and researchers in political science, sociology, history, international relations, security studies, social and political theory, and nationalism studies."
