| Summary/Abstract |
This article combats the empirical deficiencies, theoretical lacunae, and normative biases that beset the literature on nationalism. It focuses on the context of Catalonia in Spain. It documents the diffusion of divergent modes of national identification across different segments of Catalan society. It employs such thick-descriptive detail to challenge the dominant depiction of Catalan nationalism as a "civic nationalism." It demonstrates that the social bases of support for the Catalan nationalist movement are overwhelmingly "ethnic," and that the movement is an elite-led, "top down" project. In addition, it critiques the ideal-typical distinction between "civic" and "ethnic" nationalisms upon which the dominant depiction of Catalan nationalism is based, and it advances an alternative typological distinction between "exclusionary" and "assimilationist" nationalist projects

| Summary/Abstract |
The issue of national identity is a fundamental aspect of inter-community disputes and hostilities in Northern Ireland. The Troubles cannot be severed from the different national claims of unionists and nationalists. But the British identity claimed by unionists has been doubted by some commentators whose work has raised searching questions with regard to the substance and genuineness of the claim. This article approaches the subject by exploring the national self-understandings of key members of the unionist community. The findings of this research suggest that there is emotional depth to the Britishness of these individuals. It recommends that their sense of nationality needs to be taken seriously rather than dismissed as a product of pragmatism or reduced to the level of superficiality

| Summary/Abstract |
This article utilizes Will Kymlicka's (1995) distinction between "equality between groups" and "equality within groups" to assess the degree to which nationalism can be considered liberal. The substantive focus is on the pronouncements of two sets of nationalists in Scotland and Québec at the turn of the 20th century: the Young Scots' Society and the more loosely grouped Nationalistes. Both groups were nurtured in the "Liberal politics" of the era. While both nationalists exhibited a "liberal nationalism," their "liberal nationalisms" were differently expressed, suggesting the existence of "two types of liberal nationalism," in which the Young Scots and Nationalistes displayed the first dimension of Kymlicka's schema but differed on the second

| Summary/Abstract |
This study analyzes how symbols taiwan (Taiwan) and zhongguo (China) have helped construct changing Taiwanese identity since the Nationalists assumed control of Taiwan in 1949. While in the past zhongguo subsumed taiwan, rising Taiwanese consciousness has compelled a reversal of their center-border positioning. Taiwan has moved from being a taboo term to cause for celebration, whereas the once dominant zhongguo has been rendered less visible through acts of de-Sinicization. The ROC government has also adopted creative rhetoric to reinvent the One China Policy implied by its Constitution. Taiwanese national identities are thus reconstituted in the ongoing negotiation of boundaries between Taiwanese-ness and Chinese-ness
