In Western Europe, they are being challenged by the call of assimilation into a larger supra-national polity. Elsewhere, as in Southeastern Europe, nation-states are being challenged by separatist forces from within, demanding independence or self-determination for particular ethnic groups. In either instance, the ultimate aim is not simply the breaking of bonds but rather a realignment of belonging.When the prospect of prosperity and the good life requires an adjustment of national identities and alliances, old myths and new tales alike are mobilized in the effort. People's choices of belonging are flexible and often blatantly pragmatic. Some will never renounce their original 'nation,' while others gladly assume two or three national identities in a lifetime, all of them with a deeply felt commitment. In The Shifting Foundations of Modern Nation-States, Sima Godfrey and Frank Unger have gathered together a distinguished, multidisciplinary group of authors to discuss national myths from Europe, North America, and Asia. Just as the plurality of nations implies diverse voices and distinct narratives, the authors, coming from different disciplines and backgrounds, represent multiple discourses on the theme of nationhood. 410 0$aGreen College thematic lecture series. 606 $aNation-state 606 $aNation-state$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aNation-state. 615 0$aNation-state$xHistory. 676 $a320.1 702 $aGodfrey$b Sima$f1951- 702 $aUnger$b Frank$f1945- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456419103321 996 $aThe shifting foundations of modern nation-states$92492147 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01172nas 2200349-a 450 001 9910324024103321 005 20240413013035.0 035 $a(CKB)1000000000220412 035 $a(CONSER)--2005240501 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000220412 100 $a20050111a20049999 --- - 101 0 $aeng 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aBOFIT Russia review 210 $aHelsinki, Finland $cBank of Finland, BOFIT Institute for Economies in Transition 215 $a1 online resource 311 $aPrint version: BOFIT Russia review.
