States, nations and nationalism : from the Middle Ages to the present af Hagen Schulze (Bog)

From the Middle Ages to the Present The first general history of the evolution of European states and nations from medieval times to the present. 'Schulze demonstrates a high level of competence in tracing the growth of the nation and the state from the time of Charlemagne to the reign of Napoleon. But it is in his account of that point in the early nineteenth century when the nation and state fuse that his book achieves brilliance. Choice This book describes the twin evolutions of nation and state from the Middle Ages to the present and links them to stages in European cultural history. The author contrasts the development of the state in different parts of Europe and shows how the concept merged with the idea of the nation in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The modern idea of the nation state, he argues, is rooted in the fundamental changes that took place during the industrial, political and cultural evolutions of this period. Alongside the history of the nation the author charts successive stages in the development of nationalism, offering an explanation of why it was that in the decades preceding the twentieth century the concept of the nation began to take hold of the people at large. The final part of the book traces the attempts in Western Europe since 1945 to come to terms with nationalism, and examines the implications of the rise of nationalism in Central and Eastern Europe.
