This article explores various aspects of the construction of Nicaraguans' national identity. On the one hand, it involves the construction of the national community through historical processes, selection of narratives, and elaboration of stereotypes. The analysis shows that turning to certain mechanisms and literary figures results in some highly arbitrary stereotypes. On the other hand, this article analyzes the narratives—which counter nationalism—of the inhabitants of a border region. The proposals of these social actors coincide on one essential point: recognition of a bi-national identity that demands a bi-national citizenship
