Reviews
'In her bold and erudite comparative study, Ugur Cinar boldly identifies the remote but powerful impact exerted not by the content but by the type of narrative nations and peoples embrace.' Ian S. Lustick, Bess W. Heyman Professor, University of Pennsylvania, USA
'Meral Ugur Cinar's insightful book is a central contribution to contemporary discussions of citizenship, identity, and inclusion. In this book, she traces the way in which the interpretation and institutionalization of the past shapes present national identity and the inclusionary potential of citizenship. The original research on Austria and Turkey will be essential to specialists, but the theoretical development will be more broadly influential. In particular, her development of the history-identity nexus provides a systematic way to evaluate the way in which longstanding narratives of history, culture, and identity take shape and constrain contemporary politics. Her book will be required reading for political scientists interested in Turkish and Austrian politics as well as for scholars of citizenship and nationalism.' Inés Valdez, Assistant Professor, The Ohio State University, USA
'This book represents the best of a new generation of scholarship on nationalism and collective identity: it is theoretically sophisticated, tightly argued, and well versed in the two significant and interesting case studies of Austria and Turkey. Its author, Meral U?ur Ç?nar, also represents the best of a new generation of young Turkish scholars: international in their perspective and understanding, and able to bring fresh perspectives to both Turkish studies, and to the global significance of the Turkish experience.' John VanderLippe, Associate Professor of History, The New School for Social Research, USA
