Ethnic Challenges To the Modern Nation State

by Shlomo Ben-Ami, Yoav Peled (Editor), Alberto Spektorowski (Editor)

Original essays examine ethnic challenges to the modern nation-state and to moderninty itself, on the philosophical, political, and social levels. These issues are examined in case studies encompassing three types of states: industrialized, liberal states in Western Europe, settler states in America, Africa, and the Middle East, and post-colonial states in Asia and Afica.
