The essays in this collection examine various aspects of established and emerging nationalism in Central and East Europe. The phenomenon of emerging nationalism is not compatible with the general trend of denationalization of public life in the post-modern age. While Russian nationalism is likely to hark back to the glorification of the State or the Russian soul, the emergent Turkmen nationalism focuses on the imagined continuity of Turkmen history and culture. Serbian nationalism, in contrast, revised the 19th-century idea of the unification of the Serbs in the Balkans. A supra-national body such as the European Community, it is argued, accepted rhetoric of national self-determination as legally valid grounds for the secession of Slovenian and Croatian republics from Yugoslavia. And yet, the construction of imaginary homelands by Slovenians and Croatians in the Austrialian diaspora differ. Overall, the phenomenon of nationalism in Central and Eastern Europe resists a simple explanation.
