| Summary: |
This article is a theoretical and historiographical essay about the criticisms and alternatives to modernism in Nation and Nationalism Studies. It outlines a general overview of classical modernism and its versions as a point of departure. Subsequently, the main alternative trends are developed according to the works of both classic and recent authors. First, primordialism and perennialism are distinguished, and their explanations regarding the antiquity of national phenomena are outlined. Second, it addresses ethno-symbolic contributions and their intermediate proposals between the previous trends and modernism. The article finishes with the new approaches developed during recent years, which try to overcome debates on whether nations are modern or not, and suggests new lines and topics of research. |
