Nationalism
Ernest Gellner Miroslav Hroch Eric Hobsbawm Ernest Renan Benedict Anderson Slavoj Zizek and Renata Salecl on Nation and Nationalism Banal Nationalism and the Internet The methods of partitioning land have undergone tremendous change since the thirteenth century. During medieval and renaissance times, royal dynasties and religious organizations formed the foundations of political and geographical divisions. As the modern era approached, people began to question the Divine Right of Kings and the dynastic apportioning of their land. The following are the most influential theorists of nationalism: Ernest Gellner, Miroslav Hroch, Eric Hobsbawm, Ernest Renan and Benedict Anderson. Gellner, Hroch and Hobsbawm propose general models for the rise of nations, while Renan and Anderson define nationalism and examine its ideological and conceptual mechanisms. Ernest Gellner In his essay, The Coming of Nationalism and Its Interpretations: The Myths of Nation and Class, Gellner creates a model for micro-units evolving into nations. There are five stages in the transition: 1. Baseline: A world exists where ethnicity is still not yet self-evidently present, and where the idea of any link between it and political legitimacy is almost entirely absent. 2. Nationalist Irredentism: A world which has inherited and retained most of its political boundaries and structures from the previous stage, but within which ethnicity as a political principle in other words, nationalism is beginning to operate The old borders and polities are under pressure from

nationalist agitation. 3. Emergence of Nationalist States: National Irredentism triumphant and self-defeating. Plural empires collapse, and with them the entire dynastic-religious style of political legitimation, and it is replaced by nationalism as the main effective principle. A set of smaller states emerge, purporting to fulfill the national destiny of the ethnic group with which they are identified. This condition is self-defeating, in so far as these new units are just as minority-haunted as the larger ones which had preceded them. The new units are haunted by all the weaknesses of their precursors, plus some additional ones of their own. 4. Nacht and Nebel. This is a term employed by the Nazis for some of their operations in the course of the Second World War. Under cover of wartime secrecy, or in the heat of conflict and passion, or during the period of retaliatory indignation, moral standards are suspended, and the principle of nationalism, demanding compact homogenous ethnic groups within given political-territorial units, is implemented with a new ruthlessness. It is no longer done by the older and benign method of assimilation, but by mass murder or forcible transplantation of populations. 5. Cultural Convergence: High level of satiation of the nationalist requirement, plus generalized affluence, plus cultural convergence, leads to a diminution, though not the disappearance, of the virulence of nationalist revindication. Gellner grounds each stage historically. It is interesting to note that he considers the world on eve of the French Revolution in 1789 as the baseline society, although it bears very little resemblance to either one of the two societies Gellner describes as baseline. Prior to the French Revolution, dynastic monarchies invoked the Divine Right of Kings to apportion land and to govern the people. Miroslav Hroch In his essay From National Movement to the Fully-Formed Nation: The Nation-Building Process in Europe, Hroch classifies a nation as a large social group integrated not by one but by a combination of several kinds of objective relationships (economic, political, linguistic, cultural, religious, geographical, historical) and their subjective reflection in collective consciousness. Hroch identifies three keys to creating a nation: a memory of a common past, treated as a destiny of the group; a density of linguistic or cultural ties enabling a higher degree of social communication within the group or beyond it; a conception of the equality of all members of the group organized as a civil society. These three keys to creating a national identity generally occur in Phase A of Hrochs three phases: Phase A: Activists strive to lay the foundation for a national identity. They research the cultural, linguistic, social and sometimes historical attributes of a non-dominant group in order to raise awareness of the common traits but they do this without pressing specifically national demands to remedy deficits. Phase B: A new range of activists emerged, who sought to win over as many of their ethnic group as possible to the project of creating a future nation. Phase C: The majority of the population forms a mass movement. In this phase, a full social movement comes into being and movement branches into conservative-clerical, liberal and democratic wings, each with its own program. Eric Hobsbawm In Nations and Nationalism, Hobsbawm incorporates Hrochs three phases into his model for the

development of nations and adds to them: National Consciousness: Hobsbawms first stage describes how national consciousness develops unevenly among the social groupings and regions of a country the popular masses workers, servants, peasants are the last to be affected by it (12). Phase A: Hobsbawm adopts Hrochs terminology, describing Phase A as the emergence of cultural, literary and folkloric identity for a particular social group or region (12). Within this phase, Hobsbawm cites three criteria for making claims of nationality: 1.Its historic association with a current state or one with a fairly lengthy and recent past (37). 2.The existence of a long-established cultural elite, possessing a written national literary and administrative vernacular (37). 3.A proven capacity for conquest (38). Phase B/Popular Proto-Nationalism: A body emerges, which consists of pioneers and militants of the national idea. They begin to campaign for this idea of nationality (12). He gives four main criteria for the development of popular proto-nationalism: 1. Language 2. Ethnicity 3. Religion 4. The consciousness of belonging or having belonged to a lasting political entity the most decisive criterion of proto-nationalism (73). Phase C: Nationalist programmes acquire mass support, or at least some of the the mass support that nationalists always claim they represent (12). Hobsbawm demonstrates the historical relevancy of this stage, dividing the nationalist movement into three periods: 1. The transformation of nationalism (1870-1918): In this period, the world witnessed the completion of German and Italian unifications during the Mazzinian phase (1870-1880), as well as the collapse of multinational empires (the Hapsburg empire, the Ottoman empire, Russia) from 1880-1918 (101-130) 2. The apogee of nationalism (1918-1950): he describes this period as the triumph of the nineteenth century principle of nationality (131). 3. Nationalism in the late twentieth century: the rise of internationalism(163-183). Ernest Renan In his essay What is a Nation? Renan argues that: a nation is a soul, a spiritual principle. Two things constitute this soul or spiritual principleOne is the possession in common of a rich legacy of memories; the other is a present-day consent, the desire to live together, the will to perpetuate the value of the heritage that one has received in an undivided form (19).

Sacrifices constitute the foundation of nations: a nation is therefore a large-scale solidarity, constituted by the feeling of the sacrifices that one has made in the past and of those that one is prepared to make in the future (19). Renan disregards conventional proposals that race, religion and language generate nationalism. However, he does cite geography as a significant factor. Historically, as Anderson also emphasized, most nations began as dynasties. According to Renan, dynastic territories progress to nations in one of three ways: dynastic unions, general popular consciousness and direct will of provinces (12). Benedict Anderson

Imagined Communities, 1983. In his book, Imagined Communities, Anderson proposed that nationalism filled the void left by the decline of religious and dynastic territorial control. He writes that through the general principle of verticality, dynastic marriages brought together diverse populations under new auspices (20). The power of dynastic unions emerged most clearly through the Hapsburg family. Monarchs invoked the Divine Right of Kings to manipulate their subjects (as opposed to their citizens), and the Hapsburg family embodies that potent combination of religion and monarchy. In 1452, the Archduke of Austria (a Hapsburg) was elected Holy Roman Emperor, marking the beginning of a dynastic superpower that would endure until the First World War. However, as the Age of Reason and the Enlightenment approached, such blind faith in the monarchy diminished, and people beganto consider the concept of becoming a nation. The First World War saw the demise of many dynastic realms: by 1922, Hapsburgs, Hohenzollerns, Romanovs and Ottomans were gone From this time on, the legitimate international norm was the nation-state, so that in the League [of Nations] even the surviving imperial powers came dressed in national costume rather than imperial uniform (113).

Slavoj Zizek and Renata Salecl on Nation and Nationalism

Slavoj !i"ek, Warsaw, 2009 (by Mariusz Kubik)/CC Licensed Slavoj Zizek is Senior Researcher at the Institute for Social Sciences, University of Ljubljana, Slovenia and is a Professor at the European Graduate School. He is the author of numerous books, including Cogito and the Unconscious (1998), The Plague of Fantasies (1997), Enjoy Your Symptom!: Jacques Lacan in Hollywood and Out (1992), For They Know Not What They Do: Enjoyment as a Political Factor (1991), Welcome to the Desert of the Real (2002) The Parallax View (2006), Terrorism and Communism (2007). In his work Zizek engages political theory, psychoanalysis and philosophy. Renata Salecl is a philosopher and sociologist. She works as a researcher in the Institute of Criminology at the Faculty of Law, Ljubljana, Slovenia, and has been a visiting scholar at several institutions including the New School for Social Research, London School of Economics and the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law. Her books include Gaze and Voice as Love Objects (1996), Sexuation (2000), On Anxiety (2004), Choice (2010). Enjoy Your Nation as Yourself! is the last chapter of Tarrying with the Negative, in which Slavoj Zizek brilliantly expounds on the notions of nation and nationalism as they are reflected in Eastern Europe today. He starts by pointing to the fact that the disintegration of communism in this part of the world was paradoxically followed by a distorted image of a what he calls reinvented democracy: The reality emerging now in Eastern Europe [shows] the gradual retreat of the liberal-democratic tendency in the face of the growth of corporate national populism which includes all its usual elements, from xenophobia to antiSemitism (200). Zizek explains this shift by rethinking the notion of national identification from a Lacanian psychoanalytic perspective. He argues that national identification is by definition sustained by a relationship toward the Nation qua Thing (201), which carries contradictory properties. On the one hand, it is something that belongs to one particular group or community of people and not to others. It is our Thing, and therefore inaccessible and denied to the Other. On the other hand, however, it is that which is under constant threat by the Other, even though at times only under a symbolic menace. When the latter is the case, it resembles Freuds notion of castration. Practically, it cannot happen, but theoretically, the possibility of it happening is ever present, and because of this there is no escape from its looming threat.

The Nation-Thing is connected to a communitys way of life, their traditions and social practices, their rituals and myths. Nonetheless, besides being a way of life, the Nation-Thing is also something in which members of the community have a propensity to believe. This belief, and the belief that others share it, sanctions the Nation-Thing. The nation is therefore not only a product constructed by specific discursive practices but it also consists of a certain underlying substance, which according to Lacan would be jouissance or the remainder of some real (Zizek translates jouissance as enjoyment). It is this nondiscursive entity which must be present for the Nation qua discursive entity effect to achieve its ontological consistency (202). The national Thing resists universalization, but functions, nevertheless, as a particular Absolute. It is the particular way in which an ethnic community organizes its enjoyment through national myths and traditions. Ethnic tensions ensue in the clash between different modes of ethnic enjoyment, between different modalities that structure ones relationship to enjoyment. The Others excess of enjoyment is always bothersome and often regarded as a threat, precisely because it also signifies a theft of enjoyment. In her book The Spoils of Freedom: Psychoanalysis and Feminism After the Fall of Socialism, Renata Salecl provides a clear example of this theft of enjoyment when she suggest the ways in which: Serbian authoritarian populism has produced an entire mythology about the struggle against internal and external enemies. The primary enemies are Albanians, who are perceived as threatening to cut off the Serbian autonomous province of Kosovo and thereby stealing Serbian land and culture. The secondary enemy is an alienated bureaucracy which threatens the power of the people: alienated from the nation, it is said to be devouring the Serbian national identity from within. And the third enemy has become the Croats, who with their politics of genocide are outlawing the Serbian population from historically Serbian territories in Croatia. Nowadays the enemies are primarily Muslims who are pictured as Islamic fundamentalists threatening the Serbs living in Bosnia and Herzegovina. (22) The attitude towards the Others enjoyment is always ambivalent. On the one hand, the Others enjoyment presents a threat to our enjoyment, whereas on the other hand, we are fascinated by the Others enjoyment because there is something of it in ourselves. It is that which is in us more than ourselves, and thus prevents us from achieving full identity with ourselves. The hatred of the other is the hatred of our own excess of enjoyment (206). The national enemy thus always assumes the form of an excess or destructive imbalance. Referring to the hatred of the Others enjoyment, Salecl quotes Jacques-Alain Miller who suggests that: I am willing to see my neighbour in the Other but only on condition that he is not my neighbour. I am prepared to love him as myself only if he is far away, if he is removed. When the Other comes too near, when it mingles with you, as Lacan says, new fantasies emerge which concern above all the surplus of enjoyment of the OtherWhat is at stake is of course the imputation of an excessive enjoymentThe question of tolerance or intolerance is not at all concerned with the subject of science and its human rights. It is located on the level of tolerance or intolerance toward the enjoyment of the Other, the Other as he who essentially steals my own enjoyment. (21) Salecl analyzes the Others relationship to us thusly: the Other who outrages our sense of the kind of nation ours should be, the Other who steals our enjoyment is always the Other in our own interior; i.e. our hatred of the Other is really the

hatred of the part (the surplus) of our own enjoyment which we find unbearable and cannot acknowledge, and which we transpose (project) onto the Other via a fantasy of the Others enjoyment. Therefore hatred of the Other, in the final analysis, is hatred of ones own enjoyment. (21-22) Postmodernism is often described as the age of fragmentation and the unlimited inflation or plurality of subject positions. In this respect, postmodernism follows the logic of rampant capitalism; the more production grows, the more the need to produce grows and satisfaction is never achieved. Similarly in Freudian terms, the greater the repentance stimulated by the transgression of the Law, the greater the guilt. Opposite to the logic of capitalism of superfluous overproduction and of the postmodern dispersion of subject positions, nationalism assumes excessive identification with one particular ethnic position, at the expense of all other possible subject positions. Zizek emphasizes that, the more the logic of Capital becomes universal, the more its opposite will assume features of irrational fundamentalism (220). In their discussions on national identity, both Zizek and Salecl bring up the issue of a postmodern type of racism, which Etienne Balibar has called meta-racism. If the old type of racism was based on the idea that racial differences were biologically determined, meta-racism, makes these differences culturally and historically contingent. Meta-racism is identified as even more dangerous than racism, because it employs racist measures while pretending to oppose racism, thus falsely posing as its opposite. Salecl further explains that culture itself functions as a natural determinative force: it locks individuals and groups a priori into their cultural genealogy. Meta-racism perceives cultures as fixed entities and tries desperately to maintain cultural distances (12). Salecl analyzes the major political and social events after the fall of communism in Eastern Europe and the upsurge of ethnic tensions in the former Yugoslavia using Lacanian psychoanalysis and its notion of fantasy. Claiming that the structure of power is inherently fantasmatic (7) and that ideology reflects the way society deals with the fundamental impossibility of it being a closed harmonious totality, Salecl argues that: Behind every ideology lies a kernel of enjoyment (jouissance) that resists being fully integrated into the ideological universe. Here is where fantasy comes into play: fantasy stages a scenario to conceal this kernelwhen we identify with a certain political discourse, when we obey the power, what we relate to is precisely this fantasy structure behind the ideological meaning of the discourse. (6) Fantasy fills out an empty place, a void, that cannot be fully symbolized. Like Zizek, Salecl emphasizes the fantasy structure of the nation and of national identification pointing to the imaginary surplus that refuses symbolization. The nation always presents us with the impossibility to define that which in us is more than ourselves. In this respect, the nation is connected to the Lacanian real, the always missing link, that dimension which can never be incorporated into the symbolic realm. In order to deal with the impossibility of managing its own excess, a society appeals to a fantasy structure or scenario, through which [it] perceives itself as a homogeneous entity (15). Fantasy always organizes itself around the traumatic element that refuses symbolization: in this case, the nation. Homi K. Bhabha also points to the ambivalence of the nation when in the introduction to Nation and Narration he refers to the impossible unity of the nation as a symbolic force [in spite of] the attempt by nationalist discourses persistently to produce the idea of the nation as a continuous narrative of national progress, the narcissism of self-generation, the primeval present of the Volk (1). What Salecl calls fantasy Bhabha calls the act of narration which fills out the empty space of the nation. However, the ambivalence

of narration lies in the instability of knowledge, or its conceptual indeterminacy, its wavering between vocabularies (2). Bhabha describes this narration as giving citizens the heimlich pleasures of the hearth, the unheimlich terror of the space or race of the Other; the comfort of social belonging, the hidden injuries of class; the customs of taste, the powers of political affiliation (2).

Banal Nationalism and the Internet


On the internet, no one knows youre a blond (tee hee). Anonymous The usual markers of national identity for example, race, dress, physical and geographical location are easily elided on the internet. Despite this, and even in the context of multinational virtual communities, people tend to retain a strong sense of their nationality. A new set of markers has developed and been deployed both in deliberate nationalism (what Michael Billig describes as flag-waving) and as everyday background noise, or Billigs banal nationalism. Billig uses the term banal nationalism to describe the ideological habits which enable the established nations of the West to be reproduced (6). His primary example is the ubiquity of the American flag, with which he illustrates the methods by which national identity in established nations is remembered because it is embedded in routines of life, which constantly remind, or flag, nationhood(38). However, he points out, it is precisely because these reminders are not consciously noticed (and thereby opened to questioning or interpretation) that they are powerful. On the internet, people are identified by their email addresses as much as by any name which they offer. Email addresses identify the individual in a two-part format, much like the given-name family-name convention of modern real life names; on the internet, the convention is given-name @ domain-name, identifying the person inextricably with the organization which puts them online. To someone capable of reading domain-names, this offers as much information as a genealogist might obtain from a family-name. In particular, almost every domain-name indicates the country of origin in the top-level (last) segment of the name. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) provides these country codes to the domain name servers (DNS) responsible for delivering email and other internet communications; each country receives a two-letter designation which should suffix the domain-name of each resident.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the United States of America is an exception to this rule. While the U.S. does have a country code (.us), the original internet did not extend outside of the U.S.; domain-names ended with a designation of internal boundaries: the distinctions were between commercial, non-profit, educational, military, and governmental organizations). American organizations are still grandfathered in by this precedent; thus .edu implicitly designates the named individual as a resident, though not necessarily a citizen, of the U.S. However, Frances Cairncross points out that: a British company, for example, would end its name co.uk, and a Japanese one with co.jp. American companies rarely put a national tag at the end of their domain names. To be registered as www.economist.com, therefore, suggests a global company, while www.economist.co.uk marks a business as a purely British concern. As a result, a rising proportion of names in the .com category do not designate U.S. companies. The official Chinese news agency, for example, has registered the name of Taiwan.com (to the indignation of the Taiwan government). (199-200) Domain names are valuable; inevitably, organizations have begun to fight over them. The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) is trying to deal with this sure recipe for conflict: an international naming space and multi-dimensional trademark law rooted in national law (www.gtld-mou.org), but the traditional policy of InterNIC, the organization responsible for the registration of .com domain names, and of all registry services has been first come, first serve, a principle with an anarchists disrespect for trademark law rather than a lawyers concern for prior claims. This disputed ownership of cyberspace must be understood as a question of colonial motivations: the goal is to raise your flag on new territory in cyberspace, put your name (or the name you choose) on the land. But whose land is it? Is the first person there the one with the right to claim it? (Leventhal). Increasingly, American courts (under whose jurisdiction fall most of the contested trademarks as well as InterNIC itself) are ruling in favor of real world trademark holders over first-comers.
