- W2464091566 abstract "Nations: I start with the word. Its everyday use varies: it is often applied to what I would rather call ›states‹. What are called international relations are relations between states. The United Nations is an association of states, that is, areas under independent governments, but the newly independent states of North America had appropriated the title of ›United States‹ long before the UN started, so the UN could not use it. English, unlike German, has another confusion as we call the process of Verstaatlichen ›nationalization‹. The everyday use of words and their meanings cannot be controlled. If we want to discuss nations and their history, we need to start by thinking what each of us means by words in our own languages and whether we understand each other’s meanings, especially if we want to make comparisons between different periods of history, different languages and countries (another word used in various quite different senses), and even maybe different disciplines. I cannot say what is the right use of the word and nor can anyone. I can only say what I mean by it. So, by nation I mean a section of human society, generally one which is, or once was, a unit of government which those within it, or some of them, believe is a natural community that, if it is not an independent state, they think ought to be an independent state. The belief in a natural community is often based on ideas or myths of their common biological descent and of a shared history and culture, including common customs and (where it fits) language. Some, however, may think that their nation is a voluntary community which has made or is making its own culture despite the different origins of its members. I use state for an organization of human society within a more or less fixed area in which the ruler or governing body more or less successfully controls the legitimate use of physical force, especially against persons. This is adapted from Max Weber by inserting ›more or less‹ because no state is totally successful in controlling its borders or the people inside it, and changing ›monopoly‹ to ›control‹ because some states allow individuals to use force on others in ways and circumstances that are considered legitimate in that state. 2 A state makes its own" @default.

- W2464091566 title "ganisational and administrative respects. But, as argued here, the medieval kingdoms were independent states and shared key features of what are now called nation-states, creating allegiances notionally defined by custom, law, and descent. Thus, this contribution addresses the words and concepts that framed these allegiances, and their changes over time. Nations, Tribes, Peoples, and States 1" @default.
