Abstract
Studies of identity formation are back as a clue to questions of peace and war. Human collectives such as nation-states forge their identities by offsetting the collective against other entities. The books under review discuss how this process takes place. They make up a possible link between the literature on nationalism and state legitimacy on the one hand, and studies of interstate security on the other. This makes them a possible starting-point for empirical research.
