Course Information
Description
As globalization faces growing challenges, nationalism and the nation-state have resurged, influencing political life and collective identities. This junior tutorial examines why, focusing on theories of nationalism, ethnic conflict, populism, and authoritarianism, and how these intersect with global issues such as inequality, migration, and distrust of democratic institutions. Through social theory and comparative case studies from regions including the U.S., Europe, and China, we will analyze the contemporary resilience of nationalism and reflect on its political challenges. This is a junior tutorial.
