Between Kin and Cosmopolis

Meer over het boek

The book explores the enduring relevance of the nation-state in a world where predictions of its decline have proven premature. It highlights the resurgence of national identities following the Soviet Union's collapse and the rise of new states, while examining the dynamics within the European Union that support smaller nation-states. Additionally, it discusses the emergence of powerful nations like China, India, and Brazil, which assert their own national identities and resist subordination to larger entities, emphasizing the complexity and viability of nationalism in contemporary geopolitics.
