Abstract

This paper aims to explore the possibilities of applying comparative and transnational approaches to the history of nation-building-processes. After providing some basic concepts, the paper tries to outline how comparative and transnational history could help to avoid treating nations as if they were our objects, contexts and analysis tools at once. Thinking nations out of the national boxes through comparative and transnational lenses could entail profound and productive changes in how to make history of national identity and nationalism, but it also could prevent these approaches from falling into the distortion of overlooking nations in the explanatory narratives.
