Excerpts from Benedict Anderson, Imagined Communities: Reflections on the Origin and Spread of Nationalism. Revised ed. London: Verso, 2016.

=========================================================================
Consider the following questions when writing your journal entry. You do not need to answer all questions, but you should address at least one of the questions. Aim for more than a summary, and use your write-up to show your understanding of the readings. Where possible, deepen your discussion by adding comparisons, addressing points of agreement or disagreement, or adding critiques (refer to comments given on previous assignments). Your answer should be in paragraph form with proofread, clear prose, between 300 and 500 words.
In Week 4, we will focus primarily on Benedict Anderson’s “Imagined Communities” discussion. We will read excerpts from Weber’s and Anderson’s books (see announcement for specifics). We will work on building connections between the themes introduced in Week 3 and the readings in Week 4.
How does Benedict Anderson’s discussion of “imagined communities” compare to……Smith’s ethno-symbolism? On what might they agree or disagree?
…Hasting’s discussion of English nationalism as the prototypical first nation? Compare their explanations for nation formation.
…Gellner’s focus on modernity? Compare their approaches to understanding nations and nationalism.
How does Eugen Weber’s explanation for the creation of a French nation relate to others we have read? How does he explain the nation-building and nationalism?
