Possibilities and pitfalls of the concept of national indifference
This introduction to the themed section ‘The history of national indifference. A critical appraisal’ explores the challenges and possibilities of the concept of national indifference. It starts from the premise that national indifference remains a very useful concept to avoid falling into teleological narratives of nationalism. The central argument is that national indifference needs to be theorized as a non‐binary, relative concept that is not t…
The use of binaries in nationalism studies
This introduction to the themed section 'Beyond Binaries of Nationalism' critically reviews the use of binaries in nationalism studies. It identifies a lack of precision in the use of ideal types as a key failing, and points to new conceptions and types. The contributions to the section question the reification of binaries, most especially western/eastern and civic/ethnic and their attendant biases, and instead emphasize a certain ideological flu…
Wereldgeschiedenis van Nederland en Vlaanderen
World history of the Netherlands and Flanders: about the (im)possibility of an open, global, and non-nationalist history for a wider audience Following the success of the Histoire mondiale de la France, 2018 saw the publication of the World history of the Netherlands and World history of Flanders. After the French example both volumes have three goals: to bring history to a wider audience; to give a global reading to the national past; and to off…
N icolas D elalande . La lutte et l’entraide
It’s all about the money, might be an irreverent but apt summary of Nicolas Delalande’s history of working-class solidarity in pre–World War I Europe. La lutte et l’entraide—the battle and mutual aid—investigates socialist internationalism from a new and interesting perspective, namely the money flows labor solidarity facilitated and relied on. Starting in 1864, Delalande traces the transnational exchanges of hard cash, services, and help in kind…
National Indifference and the History of Nationalism in Modern Europe
Questioning the Wilsonian moment
This dossier aims to problematize the widespread understanding of ethnic cleavages as the hard core undergirding national conflict. As such it questions the rise of ethnic nationalism during the late nineteenth century as the direct cause of the dawn of Europe’s ‘oppressed peoples’ after 1918. The different contributions evaluate the status of the First World War as the breakthrough moment of Wilsonian self-determination within the multi-ethnic s…
How to gauge banal nationalism and national indifference in the past
Michael Billig's theory of banal nationalism involves the assumption that the absence of an explicit discourse on the nation should be interpreted as the unmindful presence of nationalism and that the mass media faithfully represent or reflect the discourses of ‘ordinary people’. Recent historical research of ‘national indifference’ in imperial Austria has inverted the correlation between the ubiquity of nationalist discourses and their impact in…

Nationhood from Below
The Transnational Dimensions of the Early Socialist Pillars in Belgium and the Netherlands, c. 1885-1914
Maarten Van Ginderachter & Minte Kamphuis, De transnationale dimensies van de vroege socialistische zuilen in België en Nederland, 1885-1914. Een verkennend essay. Verzuiling is in eerder onderzoek voornamelijk bestudeerd in een strikt nationale context of in internationale vergelijkingen. In dit verkennend essay wordt de vraag gesteld wat transnationale geschiedenis zou kunnen toevoegen aan de studie van de verzuiling, met de nadruk op de vroege…
Denied ethnicism
The Walloon movement is the lesser‐known counterpart to the Flemish movement in Belgium. In contemporary political debate it presents itself, and is usually perceived, as a civic and voluntaristic movement predicated on the values of democracy, freedom, openness and anti‐nationalism. As such it is contrasted against its Flemish counterpart, which accordingly is characterised as tending towards an ethnic exclusivist form of nationalism hinging on …
Working-class Voices from the late Nineteenth century
This contribution focuses on the propaganda pence (denier de la propagande), a subscription list published regularly by the socialist paper Vooruit in Ghent (Belgium) at the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The Belgian Workers' Party (Parti ouvrier belge) used the propaganda pence to collect money from its members. To interest donors in giving they were invited to formulate a short statement which would be published in a special se…
Contesting national symbols. Belgian belle époque socialism between rejection and appropriation
Social Democracy and National Identity
The image of the Belgian Workers' Party as a solid party unchallenged by ethnic tensions and united around a common Belgianness does not stand up to historical scrutiny. Using the key concepts of imagined communities, ethnies, mythomoteur,and oppositional patriotism, this article argues that despite its undeniable integration into the political, social and economic structures of the Belgian nation-state, the BWP was ethnically divided between Fle…
Gender, the extreme right and Flemish nationalist women's organisations in interwar Belgium
This paper deals with the two main interwar Flemish nationalist women's organisations of the extreme right in Belgium: the Katholieke Vlaamsche meisjesbeweging (Catholic Flemish Girls' Movement) and the Vlaamsch-Nationaal Vrouwenverbond (Flemish National Women's League). Drawing on Karen Offen's distinction between ‘relational’ and ‘individualist’ feminism it is argued that they were not uniformly anti-feminist: they drew on a ‘relational’ tradit…
