Today we see on the one hand rising nationalist tendencies (e.g. anti-migration protests and an upswing for right wing parties) and on the other hand a globalized capitalist economy. Therefore, we will deal with several branches of literature (e.g. economic history, economics of identity) to discuss the following two questions: How can economics theorize nationalism? What is the link between economic developments and nationalism in the past and the present?
