S ONU STRANU MANIHEJSKIH RAZLIKOVANJA: O JEDNOM RAZUMIJEVANJU NACIONALNOSTI ROGERSA BRUBAKERA
ON THE OTHER SIDE OF MANICHAEN DIFFERENCES: ON ROGERS BRUBAKER'S UNDERSTANDING NATIONALITY

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this short essay is to present an attempt to redefine conceptual distinction between civic and ethnic nationalism through a Rogers Brubaker's dissertation, as well as to extend and deepen the publics' interest in this American author. Brubaker works as a sociology department head at the University of Los Angeles. He has written many books and studies on social theory, ethnicity, citizenship, immigrations, etc. His first book was on rationality in Max Weber's work. The next one titled Citizenship and Nationhood in France and Germany (1992) analyzed the dubiousness of making a sharp difference between originating and defining citizenship in the two European nations. In his books Nationalism Reframed: Nationhood and the National Question in the New Europe (1996) and Ethnicity without Groups (2004) he comparatively analyzed the collapse of multicultural societies and restoring of national states that successfully developed their own theoretical views. His last book Nacionalisticka politika I svakodnevni etnicitet u transilvanijskom gradu (2006) has been published by Princeton University Press.
