Nationalism and modernism:

a critical survey of recent theories of nations and nationalism

Routledge, 1998 - Political Science - 270 pages

The first major study in over three decades to explore the essential arguments of all the major theoretical interpretations of nationalism, from the modernist approaches of Gellner, Nairn, Breuilly, Giddens and Hobsbawm to the alternative paradigms of van den Bergh and Geertz, Armstrong and Smith himself.
In a style accessible to the student and the general reader Smith traces the changing view of this hotly discussed topic within the current political, cultural and socioeconomic arena. He also analyses the contributions of such historians, sociologists and political scientists as Seton-Watson, Reynolds, Hastings, Horowitz and Brass. The survey concludes with an analysis of post-modern approaches to national identity, gender and nation, making it indispensable reading to all those interested in gaining full and authoritative knowledge of nationalism.

Review: Nationalism and Modernism

User Review - AC - Goodreads

This book seems to present a good survey of the various approaches (modernist and primoridialist) to the idea of nationalism - and may be (it was rec.'d by Roger Griffin) a good introduction to the topic, though I've never seen the book. Read full review
