Diversity and Contestations over Nationalism in Europe and Canada (Palgrave Studies in European Political Sociology)

This edited collection considers how transformations in contemporary societies have raisedquestions surrounding our sense of community and belonging, alongside our management of increaseddiversity.

Diversity and Contestations over Nationalism in Europe and Canada includes contributions thatconsider the rise in regional nationalism and a greater willingness to recognise that many statesare multinational. It critically explores the effects of altered patterns of immigration andemigration, including whether they give rise to (or re-invigorate) transnational or border-crossing forms of nationalism.

The book also identifies the patterns of national transformation, especially in Europe, which wesee coupled with significant nationalist reactions by populists as well as extreme right-wingmovements and parties. This multidisciplinary collection of works will be a useful resource forresearchers and students of political sociology in Europe and Canada, particularly within the contexts of immigration, multiculturalism and globalization.
