A series of eight broadcasts
8: The role of nationalism today by GEORGE SCHÖPFLIN
Under Stalin nationalism in Eastern Europe was held firmly in check, but after his death it was used by the peoples of the area to gain greater freedom from the Soviet Union and to loosen Communist control within their countries. However, in the past, East European nationalism has proved a disruptive as well as a liberating force, turning peoples against one another. Now that direct Soviet control has ended. it is conceivable that this aspect of nationalism will again come to the fore.
