Eric Hobsbawm's brilliant enquiry into the question of nationalism won
further acclaim for his 'colossal stature ... his incontrovertible
excellence as an historian, and his authoritative and highly readable
prose'. Recent events in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet republics
have since reinforced the central importance of nationalism in the
history of political evolution and upheaval. This second edition has
been updated in the light of those events, with a final chapter
addressing the impact of the dramatic changes that have taken place.
It also includes additional maps to illustrate nationalities, languages
and political divisions across Europe in the nineteenth and twentieth
centuries.
