Book Description:

While nationalism had become politically significant well before the late Nineteenth-century, it was between 1890 and 1940 that it revealed its political explosiveness and destructive potential. Focusing mainly on East-Central Europe, and discussing such key issues as the modernity of nations and nationalism, and the relationship between nationalism and fascism, Oliver Zimmer offers an incisive examination of the most powerful ideology of modern times.
