Description

In Chosen Peoples: Sacred Sources of National Identity, Anthony D. Smith explores how sacred beliefs shape the identity of nations. Starting with the covenant between God and Abraham in the Old Testament, this study examines the idea of being a chosen people and its lasting impact on national identity. Even in a modern, secular, and globalized world, Smith argues that these religious roots remain central to how people define themselves. This important work from Oxford University Press investigates the deep Judeo-Christian origins found in many different manifestations of national identity. It provides a timely contribution to current debates regarding nationalism by explaining the complex historical connections between faith and the state. This book is a significant resource for those studying world history and the evolution of national consciousness.
