Many nations—groups sharing linguistic and cultural bonds—still have not found a true homeland. This phenomenon is examined in a scholarly study: Global Mini-Nationalisms. This book—the work of noted historian Louis L. Snyder—provides a comparative examination of the forces of mini-nationalism at work all over the world. Several sections consider the resurgence of nationalist tendencies in the various republics of the Soviet Union, nationalist movements within African countries, and those in the Middle East.
