Ideology, Mobilization and the Nation

"The book examines the development of Irish, Basque and Carlist nationalist movements in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The necessary historical background for each case is provided, as well as discussion of the respective movements and ideologies.

The focus is on the evolving ideological bases of each movement, the argument being that ideology forms the fundamental link between categorization and different variants of nationalism in traditionally styled liberal states in Europe."--BOOK JACKET.
