Contemporary Nationalism in East Central Europe

the long version

"The distinguished contributors to this book consider the problem of contemporary nationalism in East Central Europe. Nationalism today is one of the major challenges of the post-communist reconstruction of the region: it remains the unfinished business of this century. Designed as an introductory survey, the book examines nationalism in the region in the wake of the collapse of communism, defines its salient features and attempts to place recent events within a historical context."--BOOK JACKET. "The essays contained in the book look at nationalism within individual countries along with those devoted to a broader view of the problem of nationalism in the region as a whole. The countries considered include Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland, Romania and the nationalism contained within the former Czechoslovakia and former Yugoslavia. For the benefit of readers wishing to probe more deeply into the subject a further reading list is offered."--BOOK JACKET.
