Inhaltsangabe

The nation-state and the colonial state have always been the same thing: the ethnic and religious majorities of the former created only through the violent “minoritization†inherent in the latter. Assessing cases from the United States to Eastern Europe, Israel, and Sudan, Mahmood Mamdani suggests a radical solution: the state without a nation.
