Über den Autor
A leading scholar on the subject of nationalism since 1992, Liah Greenfeld is best known for illuminating it as the cultural framework of modernity, the foundation of modern society, politics, and the economy. In her numerous publications, including the trilogy consisting of Nationalism: Five Roads to Modernity, The Spirit of Capitalism: Nationalism and Economic Growth, and Mind, Modernity, Madness: The Impact of Culture on Human Experience (Harvard University Press, 1992, 2001, and 2013, respectively) she has probed into nationalism's connections with the most public as well as the most private spheres of modern experience. She teaches at Boston University, holding the position of University Professor and Professor of Sociology, Political Science, and Anthropology. Between 2010 and 2016, she served as Distinguished Visiting Professor of Social Sciences at Lingnan University, Hong Kong.
