Since its publication this important study has become established as a central work on the vast and contested subject of modern nationalism. Placing historical evidence within a general theoretical framework, John Breuilly argues that nationalism should be understood as a form of politics that arises in opposition to the modern state. In this updated and revised edition, he extends his analysis to the most recent developments in central Europe and the former Soviet Union. He also addresses the current debates over the meaning of nationalism and their implications for his position. Breuilly challenges the conventional view that nationalism emerges from a sense of cultural identity. Rather, he shows how elites, social groups, and foreign governments use nationalist appeals to mobilize popular support against the state. Nationalism, then, is a means of creating a sense of identity. This provocative argument is supported with a wide-ranging analysis of pertinent examples—national opposition in early modern Europe; the unification movement in Germany, Italy, and Poland; separatism under the Hapsburg and Ottoman empires; fascism in Germany, Italy, and Romania; post-war anti-colonialism and the nationalist resurgence following the breakdown of Soviet power. Still the most comprehensive and systematic historical comparison of nationalist politics, Nationalism and the State is an indispensable book for anyone seeking to understand modern politics.

評分寫得挺無聊的,像期末復習資料。Breuilly認為,在nationalism形成的過程中,某種為瞭爭奪state控製權的oppositional politics的作用比culture, society, and economic等各個方麵來得重要得多,但是我不明白為什麼我們可以將politics和其他的一切要素分開來,並且隻強調前者的analytical importance;在我看來,在nationalism發展的過程中,它們的關係是糾纏不清的。而且,在很多時候,這些non-political的要素對於nationalism的發展比politics更為重要呢。雖然Breuilly力求在Benedict Anderson所倡導的文化解釋之外另闢蹊徑,可是這個取嚮有點太極端瞭。
