What can the history of nationalism tell us about its future? In conversation with Eric Storm
<p>We live in an increasingly nationalistic age, with globalisation stumbling and international institutions disregarded. But we have been here before.</p><p>Nations have existed for centuries, but it's only in the last 200 years that nationalism has become such a huge influence.</p><p>So, where does nationalism come from? How has it changed since its inception? And what can its history tell us about its future?</p><p>Join Nick Spencer as he speaks to Eric Storm, Senior Lecturer in European History at Leiden University and author of 'Nationalism: a world history', a global perspective on the nature and evolution of nationalism, from the early modern era to the present.</p><p>You can buy a copy of Eric's book here: <a href="https://press.princeton.edu/books/hardcover/9780691233093/nationalism" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://press.princeton.edu/books/hardcover/9780691233093/nationalism</a></p><p><br></p>
