Written by the eminent historian and international relations theorist E. H. Carr in the immediate aftermath of World War II, the work argues that the era of the self-contained nation-state has reached its limits, giving way to the necessity of larger, supranational political and economic units. With characteristic intellectual rigor and a cool, analytical tone, Carr traces the historical arc of nationalism from its nineteenth-century origins through the catastrophic conflicts it helped produce, illustrating how the principle of national self-determination ultimately undermined the very stability it promised. The text details the tensions between national sovereignty and international cooperation, making a compelling case that the post-war world demands new frameworks of governance that transcend traditional borders. A concise yet profoundly influential contribution to political thought, it remains essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the structural forces that shaped the twentieth century and continue to resonate today.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887887823067,"sku":"2026200007151-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/6b240fed-75b7-4d87-af17-074d5b685922.png?v=1781747859","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200007151-secondhand-nationalism-and-after","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
