Description

Everyday nationalism is a neglected subect in the literature on nationalism in Europe. Jeremy MacClancy redresses the balance in this unusual and sharp book on the human and cultural aspects of Basque identities in the modern world. Jeremy MacClancy argues that the ethnographic understanding of nationalisms -- rather than the orthodox studies of ideology, political parties, social classes and centre-periphery clashes -- offers a more nuanced comprehension of the lived reality of people in areas where nationalism is a significant force. This is very much nationalism from the bottom up.
