From Interdependence to Disjunction: Gellner’s Theory and the Development of the Interrelationship Between the Concepts of Nation and Nationalism
Original language description
In this text, we deal with the relationship between the concepts of nation and nationalism. From a linguistic point of view, the concept of nationalism is derived from the concept of nation. The concept was introduced to the academic vocabulary to describe phenomena associated with nations. Many theorists of nationalism even believe that it was the sets of phenomena they called nationalism that created nations. However, both concepts, as separate entities, live their own lives and their relationship changes. In this text, the development of the relationship between the two concepts is explored. Another question addressed is how the positive and negative connotations of the word nationalism have changed. The text also explores how the words “nation” and “nationalism” relate to the context in which they exist. We frame these basic questions with the second ones: At what time and at what stage of the development of the relationship of these concepts did Ernest Gellner grasp them and to what stimuli he responded. It follows from our argument that the two concepts move away from each other and perhaps lead to mutual disjunction.
