Reviews
"The Encyclopedia of Nationalism fills a serious gap in reference material on one of the most important issues facing
the world today. It is an essential tool for scholars, journalists, and public officials."
?JACK F. MATLOCK, JR., George Kennan

"Nationalism is a topic as important and fascinating as it is notoriously resistant
to comprehensive analysis. Alex Motyl's Encyclopedia of Nationalism avoids the hopeless task of providing an authoritative
compendium of what is known or agreed upon. Instead this marvelously illuminating work offers an imaginative and wide-ranging array of
outstanding essays. Individually they trace the varieties of assumptions, questions, and answers that scholars from virtually every discipline
in the humanities and social sciences have advanced to further our understanding of some aspect of this protean phenomenon. Together
they show how rich are the possibilities for joining insights from disparate approaches whose paths of inquiry intersect on the rough
terrain of nationalism. As a reference work this is scholarship of a very high order--a must for every college and university library
and a valuable resource for specialists."
?Ian Lustick, University of Pennsylvania
"The present two-volume encyclopedia ... is an ambitious
effort to cover the main features of the debate [surrounding nationalism] and a valuable aid to students needing a summary of issues
and critical comparison of rival theories."—SECURITY DIALOGUE
