Summary
"Bringing empire back is an important change in the new approach to the history of nationalism in general. We can observe this trend not only in the history of the Russian Empire. The history of empire as the history of interaction of multiple agents, as a field where alternative strategies of identification and alternative nation-building projects competed - often with unpredictable results - is by definition hostile to all sorts of national narratives, which invariably focus on a single actor, that is, a particular national movement. It is exactly the focus on the interactions of multiple agents, that is concerned with loyalties, identity formation and nationalist agenda with their possible alternative outcomes that allows the student to grasp the fabric of imperial history."--Jacket.
