Nationalizing the Globe, Globalizing the Nation

Chapter 5 in Europe and Globalization, 2002, pp 104-113 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The paradigm of the nation-state has been Europe’s most successful export product. Indeed, the European model of the nation-state has acquired a worldwide monopolistic position as the sole legitimate form of political organization. As a result, almost the entire globe is today divided into political entities which claim to already be or aspire to become nation-states, that is, sovereign territorial units of governance (states) which coincide with a cultural reality (nations).
