«Naciones y nacionalismo desde 1780» is Eric Hobsbawm's history essay, published by Booket in paperback (224 pages, in Spanish).
Historian Eric Hobsbawm analyzes the evolution of the modern nation and nationalism since the late eighteenth century, examining everything from forms of popular protonationalism to current contradictions between the political reaffirmation of nationalities and supranational economic integration, as in the European Union. The author distinguishes between real history and «programmatic mythology» in the construction of national identities.
Work originally published in 1990 as «Nations and Nationalism since 1780: Programme, Myth, Reality». This Spanish edition, translated by Jordi Beltrán Ferrer, belongs to Booket's Divulgación collection.
Recommended for readers interested in contemporary history, political science, and the debate on the origins of nations and nationalism.

Eric John Ernest Hobsbawm was a British historian of the rise of industrial capitalism, socialism and nationalism. His best-known works include his tetralogy about what he called the "long 19th century" and the "short 20th century", and an edited volume that introduced the influential idea of "invented traditions". He was a life-long Marxist, and his socio-political convictions influenced the character of his work.
