Nationality In Modern History (1916)

""Nationality in Modern History"" is a historical book written by John Holland Rose and first published in 1916. The book explores the concept of nationality and its role in shaping modern history, particularly in Europe. Rose argues that the idea of nationality has been a powerful force in shaping political and social structures, as well as influencing the course of events such as wars and revolutions. The book is divided into three parts, with the first part discussing the origins and development of the concept of nationality. Rose traces the idea back to the ancient Greeks and Romans, and then explores its evolution through the medieval period and into the modern era. The second part of the book focuses on the impact of nationality on European politics and society during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Rose examines the role of nationalism in the unification of Italy and Germany, as well as its influence on the decline of the Ottoman Empire and the rise of new nation-states in Eastern Europe. In the final part of the book, Rose discusses the challenges facing the concept of nationality in the modern world, including the rise of globalization and the erosion of traditional national identities. He also explores the potential for conflict between different national groups, and the need for nations to find ways to peacefully coexist in a rapidly changing world.Overall, ""Nationality in Modern History"" is a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the role of nationality in shaping modern history, and remains a valuable resource for historians and scholars of political science and international relations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
