Against the nation

"Following the German reunification process in the 1990s, a new movement appeared in Germany. This movement rejected all forms of nationalism, including the desirability and legitimacy of national communities, borders, and the existence of the nation-state itself. Against the Nation covers the background of this movement -- the rise of Neo-Nazism, racist violence, restriction in immigration policies, and growing state power -- as well as its urge to organize society around other principles than nationality. By examinging the campaigns and documents of the various anti-national tendencies in Germany during this period, Robert Ogman takes a fresh look at the question of nationalism and its relationship to Left politics" -- From publisher's description.
