Title: Nationalism, Globalism, and the Conflict of Civilizations
Abstract: In recent decades the apparent global resurgence of nationalism has been accompanied by a questioning of the future of nationalism, the nation, and the nation-state. Will nationalism and national identities continue to exist in the next century? If so, will their characteristics change, and in what manner? If not, what are the alternatives to the nation and the nation-state? Since the nation is generally regarded as the hegemonic cultural and political unit of the modern period and the nation-state remains the major institution (via its membership of international organizations) through which the great planetary problems such as environmental change, nuclear proliferation, world trade, human rights, and the rights of minorities are addressed, these questions are naturally of great import.KeywordsNational IdentityEthnic CommunityModern PeriodWorld HistoryReligious MovementThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
