Sobre este áudio

Nationalism is one of the most powerful aspects of political life, connected with the defining conflicts of today.

This episode is dedicated to exploring the differences between nations and states, how they are

confused, and how they have come to be seen as intrinsically bound up together in recent centuries. While there

is a largely unconcious conventional notion that nations should ideally have their own states, there is a way to

look at things that reveals the opposite. It shows that the fusion of nations and states is not an ideal but a source of

conflict and the degradation of national cultureitself, and a central problem of political thoughts and life today.
