A compelling integration of theoretical, normative, empirical
and analytical perspectives. ? Features wide-ranging comparative
studies across the Ottoman Empire, South Africa, former Yugoslavia,
contemporary Europe and the United States ? Internationally
prominent contributors are assembled together in one volume
Where do political identities come from, how do they change over
time, and what is their impact on political life? This book
explores these and related questions in a globalizing world where
the nation state is being transformed, definitions of citizenship
are evolving in unprecedented ways, and people’s interests and
identities are taking on new local, regional, transnational,
cosmopolitan, and even imperial configurations. Pre-eminent
scholars examine the changing character of identities,
affiliations, and allegiances in a variety of contexts: the
evolving character of the European Union and its member countries,
the Balkans and other new democracies of the post-1989 world, and
debates about citizenship and cultural identity in the modern West.
These essays are essential reading for anyone interested in the
political and intellectual ferment that surrounds debates about
political membership and attachment, and will be of interest to
students and scholars in the social sciences, humanities, and
law.
