Remembering Benedict Anderson through his Under Three Flags

Research output: Contribution to journalJournal articlepeer-review

  • Søren Ivarsson
This is a revised version of a public lecture delivered at Faculty of
Humanities, Chiang Mai University, on 10th February 2016. Drawing on a broad section of Anderson’s texts, I seek to qualify his analysis of the rise of anticolonial nationalism. Hereby I will not only be challenging the critique of
Anderson’s approach raised by, among others, Partha Chatterjee. I will also
situate Under Three Flags within Anderson’s body of work and highlight how
it is an important sequel to the much more famous Imagined Communities.
