How Rich Countries Got Fich and Why Poor Countries Stay Poor. Das mental-map-Konzept, ein methodischer Ansatz, der ursprünglich von der Psychologie stammt und über die Geographie und den spatial turn ...nun schon vor einigen Jahren auch in den (deutschsprachigen) Geschichtswissenschaften angekommen ist, findet hier Anwendung. Geographical Imaginations, 1988; DAVID HoosoN: Geography and National Identity 1994); div Beiträge von Denis Cosgrove u.a.) finden keinen Eingang in die Überlegungen. In der Hoffnung auf die Gründung von Nationals taaten oder zumindest die Erlangung weitgehender Autonomien (innerhalb des Habsburgerreiches) brachen sich einerseits die Galizien bestimmenden Gegensätze zwischen Polen und Ruthenen endgültig Bahn.
A long essay entitled 'Three Historical Regions of Europe', appearing first in a samizdat volume in Budapest in 1980, instantly put its author into the forefront of the transnational debate on ...Central Europe, alongside such intellectual luminaries as Milan Kundera and Czesław Miłosz. The present volume offers English-language readers a rich selection of the depth and breadth of the legacy of Jenő Szűcs (1928–1988). The selection documents Szűcs’s seminal contribution to many contemporary debates in historical anthropology, nationalism studies, and conceptual history. It contains his key texts on the history of national consciousness and patterns of collective identity, as well as medieval and early modern political thought. The works published here, most of them previously unavailable in English, provide a sophisticated analysis of a wide range of subjects from the myths of origins of Hungarians before Christianization to the political and religious ideology of the Dózsa peasant uprising in 1514, the medieval roots of civil society, or the revival of ethnic nationalism during the communist era. The volume, with an introduction by the editors locating Szűcs in a transnational context, offers a unique insight into the complex and sensitive debate on national identity in post-1945 East Central Europe.
Overqualification is a form of person-job misfit that is common among those who reside in a foreign country. It is associated with poor work-related well-being and can inhibit full adjustment to the ...host society. The goal of our study is to examine the impact of perceived overqualification on job satisfaction and career satisfaction among immigrants. Furthermore, we investigated immigrants’ host national identity as a moderator of the impact of perceived overqualification on job satisfaction and career satisfaction. We analysed longitudinal online survey data from 124 Italian and Spanish immigrants who migrated to Germany between 2000 and 2014. Regression analyses show that perceived overqualification is negatively associated with job satisfaction six months later. Furthermore, host national identity moderates the association between perceived overqualification and job satisfaction: low overqualification is beneficial for job satisfaction whereas high overqualification is a threat for job satisfaction, especially for immigrants who identify strongly with the host society. We do not find corresponding direct and moderating effects on career satisfaction. We conclude that indicators of acculturation, such as host national identity, are worth considering in order to understand the impact of person-job misfit on work-related well-being among immigrants.

Due to a preoccupation with periods of large-scale social change, nationalism research had long neglected everyday nationhood in contemporary democracies. Recent scholarship, however, has begun to ...shift the focus of this scholarly field toward the study of nationalism not only as a political project but also as a cognitive, affective, and discursive category deployed in daily practice. Integrating insights from work on banal and everyday nationalism, collective rituals, national identity, and commemorative struggles with survey-based findings from political psychology, I demonstrate that meanings attached to the nation vary within and across populations as well as over time, with important implications for microinteraction and for political beliefs and behavior, including support for exclusionary policies and authoritarian politics. I conclude by suggesting how new developments in methods of data collection and analysis can inform future research on this topic.

National identity is a matter of vital importance in a country. Without an identity, a country is unrecognized in the eyes of the world. National identity is defined asa dynamic condition formed by ...various factors, such as ethnicity, culture, language, religion, ideology, and so on. The dynamics of national identity can be affected by the current globalization. Globalization is defined as the world's freedom to develop different aspects of life, such as technology, science, culture, and so on. This process is being propagated by technologies and information controlled by developed countries. Thus, Indonesia as a developing country has more influence than influence. Globalization influences both positive and negative. The positive effects of globalization can be harnessed in the development of nations. The negative effects of globalization, however, could remove the national identity of nations. Therefore, it takes effort to strengthen nation's identity by liberating the negative effects of globalization that can have a powerful impact on the social order, and education plays a key role in growing a superior personality for the next generation.
Changing collective behaviour and supporting non-pharmaceutical interventions is an important component in mitigating virus transmission during a pandemic. In a large international collaboration ...(Study 1, N = 49,968 across 67 countries), we investigated self-reported factors associated with public health behaviours (e.g., spatial distancing and stricter hygiene) and endorsed public policy interventions (e.g., closing bars and restaurants) during the early stage of the COVID-19 pandemic (April-May 2020). Respondents who reported identifying more strongly with their nation consistently reported greater engagement in public health behaviours and support for public health policies. Results were similar for representative and non-representative national samples. Study 2 (N = 42 countries) conceptually replicated the central finding using aggregate indices of national identity (obtained using the World Values Survey) and a measure of actual behaviour change during the pandemic (obtained from Google mobility reports). Higher levels of national identification prior to the pandemic predicted lower mobility during the early stage of the pandemic (r = -0.40). We discuss the potential implications of links between national identity, leadership, and public health for managing COVID-19 and future pandemics.
El auge electoral y político de VOX en España es de tal importancia que es imprescindible seguir profundizando en su ideología y pensamiento político. Con este objetivo, este artículo se propone ...estudiar el ideario político de esta formación sobre el islam en España, preguntándonos sobre la presencia de una posible islamofobia en tal discurso y, a su vez, sobre la orientación argumental de tal islamofobia. Para este propósito, se ha empleado una metodología de corte cualitativa basada en el análisis del discurso de diferentes fuentes audiovisuales y documentales relativos a esta formación política. El resultado de esta investigación permite aseverar que en VOX existe un discurso islamofobo en torno al islam y a la comunidad musulmana residente en España. VOX construye un ideario político donde el islam cumple la función del enemigo sociohistórico de la identidad nacional. En este contexto, tal discurso, además, está caracterizado por la presencia de una islamofobia iliberal, cuyos postulados emergen de un rechazo esencialista del islam, considerado una amenaza a la supervivencia cultural, identitaria y social de la identidad nacional española.
Past work showed that in social interactions laughter may be perceived in both a positive and a negative way. In the present research, we use dispositions towards ridicule and being laughed at ...(PhoPhiKat-9), to check how laughing at members of different nationalities is associated with the way individuals feel about their national group. Across two Studies (N = 633 and N = 1504), we show that national narcissism (but not national identification) is positively and significantly related to national gelotophobia (the fear that others may be laughing at our nation) and national katagelasticism (the joy of laughing at other nations). Moreover, we also demonstrate that dispositions towards ridicule and being laughed at mediated the path between national narcissism and metadehumanization, a conviction that out-group members perceived fellow in-group members as less than fully human.
•We analyzed dispositions towards ridicule and laughter at our own and other nations.•National narcissism is linked to national gelotophobia.•National narcissism is related to national katagelasticism.•Results of the association between national narcissism and gelotophilia were mixed.•National PhoPhiKat-9 mediate between national narcissism and metadehumanization.
