Nationalism (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789389225570)

?India has never had a real sense of nationalism? penned by Asia's first Nobel laureate, Rabindranath tagore's nationalism foregrounds his view of nationalism ?as a great menace.? suffused in four essays and a poem, the book tries to define ?nation? as a social construction levied to achieve a Mechanical purpose. The author, a mystic Orient, tries to unravel the dark reality of western nationalism and the repercussions of spiritually idealizing a nation. Delineating the complex maze of nationalism, its position in the world and its relation to India, Tagore emphasise that ?there is only one history- The history of man. All National histories are merely chapters .
