As John A. Hall notes in the introduction, many authors (including the present writer) writing in the 1990s questioned the future of the nation-state, which, to them, was coming under attack both from above—at the hand of global economic forces—and from below, at the hand of various national or ethnic revivals. As he also notes, the purpose of the volume under review is to question that question and see whether there is still some life left in the nation-state. To do so, he and his fellow editors have assembled an impressive battery of American, Canadian, and British scholars, each of whom has something interesting to say. Let us see, then, what they do say.
