Description
This article discusses contemporary minority nationalism and how it has changed over the past decade. It discusses the situation in South Africa and Northern Ireland, two examples of contemporary minority nationalism.
Contemporary Minority Nationalism presents a wide-ranging survey of the state of minority nationalism during the 1980s. The contributors explore the political and socio-economic circumstances surrounding minority nationalism, chart its successes and failures over the decade, and examine an exhaustive range of issues: structures and politics of minority nationalist movements, relations with governments, ideology, and attitudes toward human rights. Michael Watson views both Afrikaners in South Africa and Protestants in Northern Ireland as cases of minority nationalists in dominant positions finding it increasingly difficult to maintain these positions.
