Riassunto

In reaction to the centralizing nation-building efforts of states in nineteenth-century Europe, many regions began to define their own identity. In thirteen stimulating essays, specialists analyze why regional identities became widely celebrated towards the end of that century and why some considered themselves part of the new national self-image.

Recensione:

“Volume aims to do two things: first to provide an overview of recent research on regionalism and regional separatism; and second, to use a comparative approach in order to challenge existing (mis)conceptions and introduce new approaches to the study of regions and regionalism. ... a useful introduction to the range of approaches that historians of modern Europe take to sub-state regionalism, as well as to the different roles that modern regional identities have played in European states and Empires.” (Caitlin E. Murdock, European History Quarterly, Vol. 46 (1), 2016)
