Focusing on these two countries, Scott L. Greer explores why nationalist mobilization arose when it did and why it stopped at autonomy rather than statehood. He challenges the notion that national identity or institutional design explains their relative success as stable multinational democracies and argues that the key is their strong regional societies and their regional organizations' preferences for autonomy and environmental stabilitySUNY series in national identities.Self-determination, NationalScotlandNationalismSpainCataloniaHistoryScotlandHistoryAutonomy and independence movementsScotlandPolitics and government20th centuryCatalonia (Spain)Politics and government20th centuryCatalonia (Spain)HistoryAutonomy and independence movementsSelf-determination, NationalNationalismHistory.320.9411Greer Scott L884924MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910955024203321Nationalism and self-government4355208UNINA
