“…This article has provided a survey of literature concerned with the nexus between nationalism and economy, aligning itself with a growing chorus of scholars who highlight the central importance of the economic realm for the articulation of nationalism in the contemporary world (Castello and Mihelj 2018;Dumitrica 2019). In terms of analytical approach, while acknowledging the legitimate case to be made for a further revision of the traditional concept of economic nationalism (Castello and Mihelj 2018), this article has adopted a preference for a more generic stance, which relates the analysis of nationalism in the economic realm to other, well-established approaches in the discipline.…”

This article reviews recent literature concerned with the analysis of the relationship between nationalism and economy. First, it discusses scholarship advocating a new understanding of the concept of “economic nationalism” beyond its traditional focus on protectionist state policies. Second, the article branches out to consider a more interdisciplinary body of literature addressing the nationalism-economy nexus, and it relates this literature to broader debates in nationalism studies, distinguishing between three prominent approaches in the discipline: nationalism as political movement and ideology; nationalism as political discourse; and everyday nationalism. The article concludes with suggestions for future research.

“…These include chat rooms (Del‐Teso‐Craviotto, 2008), dating websites (Siibak, 2009; Zwick and Chelariu, 2006), social networking websites (Bennett, 2012; DiMicco and Millen, 2007), and blogs (Huffaker and Calvert, 2005; Titton, 2015). Certain studies have also explored the concept of nationalism (Dumitrica, 2019) and Muslim activism (Echchaibi, 2013). In contrast, the medium of vlogs, being relatively new, has only been explored by a few studies to date.…”

Negative framing of the image of Muslims, especially after 9/11, has caused numerous Muslim communities to become apprehensive about the way their identity is presented in the mass media. One such community being affected by negative representations based on Islamophobia and other gender‐related stereotypes is Pakistan. As a result, these misunderstandings are being addressed through the construction of alternative and contrasting online identities by Pakistani vloggers through digital media. This paper excavates the diversified constructions of vloggers’ online identities using two theoretical approaches to explaining identity construction: micro‐hegemonies and the investment model. Nineteen Pakistani vloggers were purposively selected for the study, who were observed over a period of two years using online observations, interviews, and email conversations, adopting a digital ethnographic approach. The investigation found that the vloggers choose to portray their religious practices, Pakistani identity, and local culture and norms while simultaneously utilizing Western norms to indicate their modernity. Moreover, they regularly emphasize that they are normal, regular human beings. Hence, the paper contributes to understanding how Pakistanis present a complex, hybrid identity which counters the dominant narratives in the media.

“…The regulative dimension of PDA has a vital role for studying the process of nation building, as institutional sedimentation is one of the commonly stressed key aspects in different conceptions defining nation as a product of discourse. The nation is materialised in such institutional dimensions as state policies (Brubaker, 1996), state education (Jaskułowski et al, 2018), national symbols (Billig, 1995;Dumitrica, 2019), popular culture (Stone, 2007), literature (Verdery, 1995), science (Kilias, 2004), local collective practices (Łuczewski, 2012), etc. -and its attendant reproduction in everyday life as something 'taken for granted' (Fox, 2017).…”

This article presents the results of a study on the historical development of nationalist discourse in Polish football stands. Its main objectives are: (a) to reveal the processes shaping the ultras’ nationalist discourse; and (b) to explain how it has been institutionalised and reproduced. Drawing on the post-foundational discourse analysis, the study conceptualises nationalist discourse as a set of structurally arranged practices of articulation which create a meaning of nation. In order to reconstruct the development of ultras’ nationalist discourse the study uses content analysis of nation-related ultras’ displays from 2002 to 2018 recaptured from the TMK ( To My Kibice, We, the fans) fanzine created by supporters and dedicated to football fan culture in Poland. The analysis identifies a sequence of four different forms of ultras’ nationalist discourse in the period under consideration and shows that they have been shaped by a contingency logic; that is, by rules stemming from the existing practices of articulation, rather than by the logic of ideological cohesion.
