’With polished cogency, this publication shows that theoretical debates concerning globalization, transnationalism and radical religious movements have not been able to shelve the significance of nationalism and identity politics. Though the volume could seem a déjà vu, its analyses based on new empirical research on nation and identity in the everyday life of peripheral European and Asian regions of former USSR are groundbreaking, stimulating for social sciences and highly topical in terms of politics.’ Christian Giordano, University of Fribourg, Switzerland ’Provides us with an impressive set of case studies of nation building projects by emerging and established scholars. These are assembled into a holistic overview of currents in Eurasia that offers refreshingly incisive theoretical insights and striking geographical breadth.’ Jeremy Morris, University of Birmingham, UK

Nation-building as a process is never complete and issues related to identity, nation, state and regime-building are recurrent in the post-Soviet region. This comparative, inter-disciplinary volume explores how nation-building tools emerged and evolved over the last twenty years. Featuring in-depth case studies from countries throughout the post-Soviet space it compares various aspects of nation-building and identity formation projects. Approaching the issue from a variety of disciplines, and geographical areas, contributors illustrate chapter by chapter how different state and non-state actors utilise traditional instruments of nation-construction in new ways while also developing non-traditional tools and strategies to provide a contemporary account of how nation-formation efforts evolve and diverge.
