Language and Nationality : Social Inferences, Cultural Differences, and Linguistic Misconceptions
What role does language play in the formation and perpetuation of our ideas about nationality and other social categories? And what role does it play in the formation and perpetuation of nations themselves, and of other human groups?Language and Nationality considers these questions and examines the consequences of the notion that a language and a nationality are intrinsically connected.Pietro Bortone illustrates how our use of language reveals more about us than we think, is constantly judged, and marks group insiders and group outsiders.Casting doubt on several assumptions common among academics and non-academics alike, he highlights how languages significantly differ among themselves in structure, vocabulary, and social use, in ways that are often untranslatable and can imply a particular culture.Nevertheless, he argues, this does not warrant the way language has been used for promoting a national outlook and for teaching us to identify with a nation.Above all, the common belief that languages indicate nationalities reflects our intellectual and political history, and has had a tremendous social cost.Bortone elucidates how the development of standardized national languages – while having merits – has fostered an unrealistic image of nations and has created new social inequalities.He also shows how it has obscured the history of many languages, artificially altered their fundamental features, and distorted the public understanding of what a language is.

Statelessness Determination Procedures and the Right to Nationality : Nigeria in Comparative Perspective
This book advances the study of the right to nationality, the prevention of statelessness, and the protection of stateless persons, taking Nigeria as a case study.Much recent literature on the subject of statelessness has been written from a US/European perspective.This work addresses this imbalance with an in-depth study of statelessness and best practice in how to prevent it in an African country.The book appraises international legal regimes on statelessness, their efficacy or otherwise in practice, what can be improved under international law, and the relevance of these regimes in the Nigerian context.The regional frameworks include those of the African Union, the Council of Europe, the EU, the Organization of American States, and the Arab League.Comparisons are also drawn with specific countries that already have an enshrined Statelessness Determination Procedure including Ivory Coast, the UK, France, Moldova, and the Netherlands, which does not have a formal procedure but has alternative means of identification.The book assesses the successes and challenges faced in these countries, and evaluates the chances for legal transplantation in Nigeria.Presenting an in-depth analysis of how statelessness is approached in the global south, the work will be of interest to researchers, academics, and policymakers working in this field as well as those concerned with nationality from an international law perspective.

A History of Eastern Europe 1918 to the Present : Modernisation, Ideology and Nationality
Why is Eastern Europe still different from Western Europe, more than a quarter-century after the collapse of Communism?A History of Eastern Europe 1918 to the Present shows how the roots of this difference are based in Eastern Europe's tortured 20th century. Eastern Europe emerged in 1918 as the 'lands between', new states whose weakness vis-à-vis Germany and Soviet Russia soon became obvious.The region was the main killing-field of the Second World War, which visited unimaginable horrors on its inhabitants before their 'liberation' by the Soviets in 1945.The imposition of Communist dictatorships on the region, ironically, only deepened Eastern Europe's backwardness.Even in the post-Communist period, its problems continue to make it a fertile breeding-ground for nationalism and political extremism. A History of Eastern Europe 1918 to the Present explores the comparative backwardness of Eastern Europe and how this has driven strategies of modernisation; it looks at the ways in which the region has served as a giant test-tube for political experimentation and, in particular, at the enduring strength of nationalism, which since 1989 has re-emerged more virulent than ever. This book in the essential textbook for any student of 20th-century Eastern Europe.

Should the partner have the same nationality or a different nationality?
Whether a partner should have the same nationality or a different nationality ultimately depends on the individuals involved and their personal preferences. Some people may find it easier to connect with someone who shares their cultural background and language, while others may be drawn to the excitement and diversity that comes with being in a relationship with someone from a different nationality. Ultimately, the most important factor is the compatibility and understanding between the partners, regardless of their nationality.

How is nationality inherited?
Nationality is typically inherited through a concept known as jus sanguinis, which means "right of blood." This principle states that individuals acquire the nationality of their parents, regardless of the location of their birth. In some cases, nationality can also be acquired through jus soli, or "right of soil," which grants citizenship to individuals born within a country's territory. Additionally, some countries may have specific laws or requirements for individuals to acquire or pass on their nationality.

Power and Identity in the Post-Soviet Realm : Geographies of Ethnicity and Nationality after 1991
With the dissolution of the Soviet Union and the demise of the Cold Wars bipolar world order, Soviet successor states on the Russian periphery found themselves in a geopolitical vacuum, and gradually evolved into a specific buffer zone throughout the 1990s.The establishment of a new system of relations became evident in the wake of the Baltic States accession to the European Union in 2004, resulting in the fragmentation of this buffer zone.In addition to the nations that are more directly connected to Zwischeneuropa (i.e.In-Between Europe) historically and culturally (Belarus, Moldova, Ukraine), countries beyond the Caucasus (Azerbaijan, Georgia, Armenia), as well as the states of former Soviet Central Asia (Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan) have also become characterized by particular developmental pathways.Focusing on these areas of the post-Soviet realm, this collected volume examines how they have faced multidimensional challenges while pursuing both geopolitics and their place in the world economy.From a conceptual point of view, the chapters pay close attention not only to issues of ethnicity (which are literally intertwined with a number of social problems in these regions), but also to the various socio-spatial contexts of ethnic processes.Having emerged after the collapse of Soviet authority, the so-called post-Soviet realm might serve as a crucial testing ground for such studies, as the specific social and regional patterns of ethnicity are widely recognised here.Accordingly, the phenomena covered in the volume are rather diverse.The first section reviews the fundamental elements of the formation of national identity in light of the geopolitical situation both past and present.This includes an examination of the relative strength and shifting dynamics of statehood, the impacts of imperial nationalism, and the changes in language use from the early-modern period onwards.The second section examines the (trans)formation of the identities of small nations living at the forefront of Tsarist Russian geopolitical expansion, in particular in Central Asia, the Caucasus, and the Southern Steppe.Finally, in the third section, the contributors discuss the fate of groups whose settlement space was divided by the external boundaries of the Soviet Union, a reality that resulted in the diverging developmental trajectories of the otherwise culturally similar communities on both sides of the border.In these imperial peripheries, Soviet authority gave rise to specifically Soviet national identities amongst groups such as the Azeris, Tajiks, Karelians, Moldavians, and others.The book also includes over 30 primarily original maps, graphs, and tables and will be of great use not only for human geographers (particularly political and cultural geographers) and historians, but also for those interested in contemporary issues in social science.
