Argues that the established theories and debates on nationalism were formed in the twin crucibles of Eighteenth-century Europe and America, and continue to be informed by that heritage. This study challenges some of the key principles that underlie the current debates on nationalism by exploring in depth the experience of multinational states in Africa. Taking Ghana as a case study, it introduces and develops two important new contributions to the theoretical tapestry of nationalism, the Rationalisation of Nationalism and Reconstructing the Nation, concepts that could have wide use and currency in the broader discussion of the national phenomenon. Argues that the nationhood of Ghana is not rooted in modernity as is generally thought, and attempts to show by analysis of the micro-behaviour of its population that tradi-tional views on the viability of the multinational state do not necessarily hold true for modern-day Africa. 256pp, UK.
