This extraordinary and truly international range of essays illustrates the different manifestations of the geographical imagination by locating myths of national identity and analysing their value in terms of pride, fear and aggression.
From the Third Reich to Bosnia, nationalism - a sense of a nation''s place in the world - has been responsible for much bloodshed. Nationalism may be manipulated by political leaders or governments but it springs from the people. Something in the history and environment of a national group creates it. This volume aims to locate and analyze the myth of national identity and its value in creating pride, deflecting fear or legitimating aggression. A range of essays - on Britain, the United States, Germany, Russia, Iraq, Serbia, Argentina, Australia, and India - illustrate the different manifestations of the geographical imagination across the countries of the world.
