ARENDT VS. KEDOURIE

Autor u svojoj studiji analizira dva različita razumijevanja nacionalizma — ono Hannah Arendt i Kedourievo. Hannah Arendt ističe vezu između rasizma, nacionalizma i imperijalizma i po njezinom je mišljenju nacionalizam različit od totalitarzma, koji predstavlja posve recentnu pojavu. Kedourie polazi od Actonove kritike Francuske revolucije i zaključuje da je radikalni nacionalizam plod francusko-njemačkih nacionalnih napetosti. Na kraju autor nudi obje koncepcije kao prilog lakšem razumijevanju antagonizama koji su doveli do rata na tlu bivše Jugoslavije.In his study, the author analyses two different views of nationalism: Arendt\u27s and Kedourie\u27s. Hannah Arendt focuses on the link between racism, nationalism, and imperialism. According to her, nationalism differs from totalitarianism, which represents a more recent development. Kedourie sets out from Acton\u27s critique of the French revolution and concludes that radical nationalism is a product of Franco-German national tensions. Finally, the author offers both concepts as his contribution to an easier understanding of the antagonisms which brought about the war on the territory of the former Yugoslavia
