Description of the research topic:
This project proposal focuses on the values and identities that are linked to the concept of nation in the V4 capitals. The capitals can be perceived as centres of national pride (Therborn 2006), but they also exist as multicultural environments where different people interact on a daily basis. In the V4 capitals, the propensity to vote differs from the rest of the population, with significantly fewer people voting for parties that use nationalist rhetoric. This shows that nationalist rhetoric is not as effective in these places. The project is based on the idea of identity plurality (Parekh 2009; Shokev & Erez 2008). Within this, it focuses on national and EU identity, nationalism, social belonging, political engagement, solidarity and trust, crisis situations, feelings of security, political alienation, radicalisation, marginalisation and civic consciousness. The project aims to explore the link between national identity and associated values (with a particular focus on the post-immigration wave); 2. to explore the formation and expression of national identity and values in capital cities; 3. to use the findings to make recommendations on how to address public narratives and issues related to national identity and nationalism, and how to mitigate the impact of extremist views.
