In this blog Brian Girvin (University of Glasgow) examines the complex relationship between political violence and nationalism. He considers possible justifications for the use of violence for political ends, arguing that is use can be justified in limited circumstances only. He finds that while there is an association between violence and nationalism, other factors such as state dominance and imperial claims are more important.
