NATIONS AND NATIONALISM Autumn Semester, 2012-2013 COURSE INSTRUCTOR James Kennedy will be available in his office, Room 6.28 (top floor), Chrystal Macmillan Building, Thursdays 2-4. His ‘phone number is 650-4250, his email address is: [email protected]. COURSE FORMAT The course is semester-length, following the standard 20 hours per course for honours options in sociology. The class meets on Tuesdays 11:10-13:00, in Seminar Room 2, Chrystal Macmillan Building. Each week will be divided into an hour of lecture and an hour of tutorial; occasionally videos will be shown in the second lecture hour. The lectures will explore theoretical issues, while the tutorials will focus on substantive case material. Tutorials will be variable, involving small group discussions, student presentations in groups, and debates. COURSE AIMS • • • • •

to provide a sociological analysis of nationalism, while also drawing upon political, historical, anthropological and geographical accounts. to lay out the key concepts, theories and typologies of nationalism. to investigate the relationships between nationalism and other social processes, such as language, religion, class, gender, political regulation and globalization. to understand nationalism as social process, social movement, and social identity. to illuminate the ways substantive case material informs theory-making.

COURSE OBJECTIVES Students who have taken the course will have an understanding of differing theoretical explanations of nationalism, and be able to critically compare its manifestations in different social settings. They should be able to analyse the ways nationalism interacts with other sociological processes (e.g., language, religion, gender, class, political regulation and globalization), and identify and describe major debates within the study of nationalism. ASSESSMENT Work produced for this course should engage with material from this course’s lectures, tutorials and readings. It is insufficient to rely on lectures and readings from other courses with a ‘nationalism element’ (e.g. Sociology 1 and 2, Politics 1). ALL STUDENTS are required to submit BOTH a 1500 word short essay* worth 25% of the total grade (Deadline: Monday 15th October, 12 noon; CMB 1.09), AND sit a two-hour examination in the December diet, worth 75% of the total grade. Details of the short essay will be distributed in class. *SUBMITTING WORK ELECTRONICALLY

1

From 2012-13 Sociology is trialing a new way to handle essay submission, marking and return. Junior and Senior Honours students will submit an electronic copy of their essay, in normal word processing format, through Pebble Pad. You will find Pebble Pad on your MyEd screen. You will not be required to submit paper copies of your essay, and feedback will be provided direct to you through the Pebble Pad system. We hope that this will make things easier for students, administrative staff and teaching staff, reduce printing costs, and help the University to be more environmentally responsible. Full information on how to submit your Sociology essays can be found here: https://www.wiki.ed.ac.uk/display/SPSITWiki/Submitting+Work+Using+PebblePad No exemptions will be offered; the short essay cannot be resubmitted, and there is no re-sit examination. The course will be externally examined as part of the Sociology diet. FEEDBACK AND EVALUATION The course will be evaluated by Sociology-organized questionnaires given to students at the end of the course. All courses in Sociology are evaluated in this way, and the results are reviewed in staff meetings. Comments made by students, staff and external examiners will be fed back into course revision.

PART I: THEORY Week 1 (18 Sept.) INTRODUCTION: CONCEPTS AND PERSPECTIVES: Until recently sociology overlooked nationalism. Why was this? We explore the basic attitudes or approaches that are often taken toward the subject of nationalism, the underlying assumptions about what kind of thing it is, which often predetermine our understandings. We begin to distinguish ‘nations’ and ‘nationalism’ from related concepts such as the ‘state’. Readings: Anderson, B. ‘Introduction’ (Ch. 1), op. cit. Billig, M. ‘Remembering Banal Nationalism’ (Ch. 3), op.cit. Brubaker, R. ‘Myths and misconceptions in the study of nationalism’ (Ch. 12), Hall, op. cit. Gellner, E. ‘Definitions’ (Ch. 1), op. cit.

Fevre (2001) ‘The national question: sociological reflections on nation and nationalism’, N&N, 7(3): 297-315. Weber, M. (1968) ‘Ethnic Groups’ in G. Roth and C. Wittich (eds.) Economy and Society Vol. 1, UC Press, pp. 285-95 (HM57 Web.) Yoshino, K. ‘Japan’s Nationalism in a Marketplace Perspective’ (Ch. 7), Guibernau and Hutchinson, op. cit. Tutorial: Group Discussion: What kind of phenomenon is nationalism? An objective process, or a subjective feeling? Is it rational, or irrational? Good, or evil? Week 2 (25 Sept.) ORIGINS: NATIONALISM AND MODERNITY: The dominant theory is that nationalism is an effect of modernity and modernisation, including such processes as industrialisation/capitalism, state-formation and the development of mass cultures. We will examine various arguments for this explanation (especially those of Ernest Gellner), as well as criticisms of it. Readings: Breuilly, J. ‘The State and Nationalism’ (Ch. 2), Guibernau and Hutchinson, op. cit. Gellner, E. ‘Nationalism and Modernization’, (Ch. 9), Hutchinson and Smith, op. cit.

ORIGINS: ETHNICITY AND CULTURE: Another major line of argument sees nationalism as arising out of processes of ethnicity. This poses various questions: are the roots of nationalism ‘pre-modern’? how is ‘ethnicity’ related to ‘culture’? how is ‘ethnicity’ distinguished from related concepts such as ‘tribe’? why is kinship such a common metaphor in the construction of national identity?

CHARACTER: ETHNIC, CIVIC AND CIVIL NATIONALISM: Hans Kohn famously drew a distinction between western and eastern nationalism. This dichotomy has since been joined by distinctions between ‘civic’ and ‘ethnic’ nationalism and between ‘liberal’ and ‘illiberal’ nationalism. This session critically examines these dichotomies and asks how useful are they to conceptualizing nationalism? Readings: Anderson, B.

We will try to understand why religion has provided the organizational and ideological context for so many nationalist movements, and examine the hypothesis that nationalism can be viewed as a modern, secular form of religion.

LANGUAGE: Like religion, language has often (but not always) been central to nationalism. We will consider the functional and ideological roles that language plays, and ask why it is so fundamental to identity, and why it serves as a powerful metaphor for communal membership and identity.

CLASS: Nationalist movements are often attributed to machinations of élites on the one hand, and the aspirations of the masses on the other. However, close inspection almost always reveals the crucial role of interstitial, middle classes, including intellectuals, professionals, academics, bureaucrats, etc., groups often associated with ‘civil society’. We examine the role of class processes, and especially middle classes, in nationalism. Readings: Anderson, B. ‘Creole Pioneers’ (Ch. 4), op. cit. OR (Ch. 29), Hutchinson and Smith, op. cit.

GENDER: There has been increasing interest in recent years in the relationship between gender and nationalism, and the neglected role of women in national processes. This includes the gendered symbolisation of the nation, the alteration of gender relations by the nation-state, and the active role of women in nationalist mobilisation. We explore these themes.

PART III: CONTEMPORARY ISSUES Week 9 (13 Nov.)

Week 10 (20 Nov.) GLOBALIZATION: To conclude we will try to tie together some of the themes we have covered by considering the relationship between nationalism and ‘globalization’. What is ‘globalization’? What are the implications of globalization for nationalism and its creation, the ‘nation-state’? Is nationalism declining? on the rise? or the same as it ever was?
