Description
Summary:We are living the century of nationalism and, paradoxically, that of individualism. The thought about the collectivity and the subject invades the reflections of the social sciences of the last 100 years, mainly after the boom of psychoanalysis and Marxism. Methodologically, the need for the social sciences to be considered sciences, in comparison with the natural sciences and their method, has generated an impossibility of thinking about reality outside of its rational aspects. The proposal of this article is to think about civic nationalism, from the experiences of Catalonia and Quebec, to make a theoretical-methodological proposal that, at the crossroads between sociology, anthropology, political science and history, allows us to think about this very current phenomenon of a deeper way. Nationalism is not only developed by political institutions, but is, mainly, a daily experience, a way of doing and thinking about our identity: the nation is thought, but mainly it is lived, danced, felt.
