![]() ![]() The article, in light of an overview of the literature, draws four important conclusions. The final section discusses the position of new approaches to nations and nationalism and how they have problematised the key assumptions of the mainstream understanding of nationalism. It does not aim to provide definitive answers to the complex problems associated with nations and nationalism but rather to provide an overview of these debates by examining the existing literature on nations and nationalism. The purpose of this article is to lay out the debates and arguments around three key broader issues that dominate nationalism studies: (a) the meaning of a nation and nationalism and the relationship between political and cultural nationalism (b) the origins and character of nations and nationalism and (c) the civic-ethnic dichotomy and the relationship between nationalism and liberalism. ![]()
