Beschreibung
This book proposes a conceptualisation of
nationalism with a multilevel operational character. It
offers three different perspectives on nationalism that
consider both the discursive structure and the discursive
agency of nationalism. It also demonstrates a number of
intra-phenomenal and extra-phenomenal constraints on
nationalism. This book underlines that nationalism in
contemporary Europe should not be regarded in terms of
methodological homogeneity and conceptual uniformity,
ideological rigidity or strategic consistency but rather as
a contested, segmented, bounded and contextual phenomenon.
