From the publisher:

The renowned British social scientist Anthony Smith is considered a classic of studies in theories of nations and nationalism, as he is one of the most prolific authors on this topic. "Nations and Nationalism in the Global Age is the author's latest book. It is devoted to the study of the methods used to analyse the revival of nationalism today and offers his own view of the latest trends in the formation of nations and nationalisms, based on the ideas briefly outlined in his previous books (National Identity, Nationalism). The author's argument is that nationalism derives its strength from its roots in the historical past. Nationalist ideology can take root in a particular soil only if it touches a popular chord, is picked up, and inspires certain social groups and strata.

The publication is intended for scholars and students of social sciences.
