There were attempts by nationalist activists to exploit ethnic and linguistic elements to form or join national states, but these largely failed until much later in the century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Contrary to the current consensus within nationalism scholarship, which is steeped in the notion of \"liberal nationalism,\" \u003ci\u003eThe Fight for a Supranational World\u003c\/i\u003e argues that in 1848 and the following years, nationalism was illiberal due to its exclusionary or assimilatory tendencies in its quest for cultural and linguistic homogeneity. This work also shows how Habsburg supranationalism, neglected within nationalism studies and political science more broadly, needs to be the bedrock for more accurate theorizations of nationalism that would prove the relevance of Elie Kedourie's and Eugen Weber's works, among others, despite Ernest Gellner's and Benedict Anderson's enduring popularity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 250\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.53 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 15, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45638814761062,"sku":"9781626712225","price":109.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/o6WNwMRsjB9781626712225.webp?v=1779267029","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/the-fight-for-a-supranational-world-trieste-the-adriatic-and-the-habsburgs-1848-1867-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
