Notes
This book adds to our knowledge of the multiple facets of loyalties to nation, empire, people and place, and about the effect of the war on inclusions and exclusions in wartime and its aftermath (Review by Jay Winter). The book is a collection of fifteen separate essays with an Introduction by the Editors, authored by sixteen academics from across the world. These essays are grouped into four sub-headings: "The Fatherland and the Other", "The Limits of Nationalisation", "Minorities in and at War", and "Town and Nation". The Editors comment that it is their hope that the methodological and geographic diversity of the essays will deepen knowledge about ongoing debates regarding the role of the war in the formation of the modern nation-state.
