| Summary: | "Celebrated by some as the source of political value and a key organizational principle, decried by others as treacherous and intellectually moribund, the nation- state and nationalism have endured despite the momentous upheavals of the 20th century.

Do the novel challenges and historical developments we face demand that we rethink our understanding of national sovereignty and the principle of self-determination?
