Despite its political significance and a burgeoning academic literature, however, there is surprisingly little in the way of general theoretical surveys of the field. Umut Ozkirimli's book aims to fill this gap by offering a comprehensive introduction to contemporary theories of nationalism, from primordialism to modernism and ethno-symbolism, as well as a systematic summary of the major criticisms raised against each.". | |
