"National Identity is an important step in establishing the
contextual constraints of history and culture." --Macro
"Questions surrounding the nature of nations and nationalism, and
their distinctions from ethnic groups and enthnocentrism, have
become major research themes in the past two decades. This
analytical focus owes much to the work of Anthony Smith, one of the
most prolific English-language authors exploring these issues. . .
. Judged by the criteria established in the introduction, this book
is a success. It is a highly readable, relatively brief overview of
an extremely complex topic." --Canadian Review of Studies in
Nationalism
"Smith's National Identity makes a significant contribution to our
understanding of nationalism." --World Politics
