Ethnic divisions have existed for generations. Discusses various types in pre-industrial society and in Europe in the Nineteenth century through the theories of social scientists. Argues that ethnic minorities can assert their claims with greater impunity today because of the world economy and polity. Ethnic nationalism in its extreme manifestation of a 'liberation movement' is capable of becoming the catalyst for international conflict and even world war. (AM)

Various theories of ethnic nationalism are distinguished, including biosocial, modernization, Marxist/Leninist, internal colonial, ethnic pluralism, microsocial (eg, rational-choice), systems theories, & multivariate models. Ethnic nationalism is complex & does not lend itself to simplistic explanation. Rational calculation may be abandoned when highly valued goals or sacred symbols are threatened. Theories must take into account levels of technological & economic development, relative power relations, the role of elites, boundary maintenance, the effects of internal & external war, & strategies of containment by dominant strata. There has been a resurgence in ethnic nationalism because of the declining power of existing states relative to the superpowers, military alliances, the global economy, multinational companies, & supranational agencies, eg, judicial bodies & human rights tribunals. 3 Illustrations, 45 References.

"The Routledge Handbook of Contemporary Vietnam is a comprehensive resource exploring social, political, economic, and cultural aspects of Vietnam, one of contemporary Asia's most dynamic but least understood countries. Following an introduction that highlights major changes that have unfolded in Vietnam over the past three decades, the volume is organised into four thematic parts: Politics -- Economy -- Social life and institutions -- Cultures in motion. Part one address key aspects of Vietnam's politics, from the role of the Communist Party of Vietnam in shaping the country's institutional evolution to continuity and change in patterns of socio-political organisation, political expression, state repression, diplomatic relations, and human rights. Part two assesses the transformation of Vietnam's economy, addressing patterns of economic growth, investment and trade, the role of the state in the economy, and other economic aspects of social life. Parts three and four examine developments across a variety of social and cultural fields, through chapters on themes including welfare, inequality, social policy, urbanization, the environment and society, gender, ethnicity, the family, cuisine, art, mass media, and the politics of remembrance. Featuring 38 essays by leading Vietnam scholars from around the world, this book provides a cutting-edge analysis of Vietnam's transformation and changing engagement with the world. It is an invaluable interdisciplinary reference work of interest to students and academics of Southeast Asian Studies, as well as policymakers, analysts and anyone wishing to learn more about contemporary Vietnam"--
