About this book
Rozynek goes on to show how nationhood can offer a resolution to this tension, building on the pioneering work of Liah Greenfeld. Far from being a defense of tribalism, this book attempts to tackle both the questions of national solidarity and cosmopolitan duties, by problematizing the account of nationalism in contemporary political theory and advocating a revised model of universalism.
Reviews
“Placing philosophical thought about the modern self in dialogue with contemporary political understandings of the nation, Rozynek uncovers an auspicious strategy for renewing the complex—and increasingly fraught—relationship between national community and global solidarity. An eminently readable and engaging work that will be a boon to theorists of nationalism and cosmopolitanism alike.” (Patrick Hayden, University of St. Andrews, UK)
