,Imagined Communities: Reflections on the Origin and
Spread of Nationalism
Cultural roots
No more arresting emblems of the modern culture of nationalism exist than cenotaphs and tombs of
unknown soldiers

The graves are empty but they are saturated with ghostly national imaginings (who else can this be
but a German/etc. soldier?)

Nationalism has a cultural affinity with death

Religions attempt to explain/justify injustices and transform fatality into continuity whereas
progressive styles of thought answer questions with impatient silence

18th century: dawn of nationalism and dusk of religions

Nationalism: turn chance into destiny

For present purposes: the two relevant cultural systems are the religious community and the
dynastic realm (taken-for-granted frames of reference, as nationalism is today)

The religious community
Classical communities linked by sacred languages had a character distinct from the imagined
communities of modern nations: The older communities’ confidence in the unique sacredness of
their languages and thus their ideas about admission to membership

Even though the sacred languages made such communities as Christendom imaginable, the actual
scope an plausibility of these communities cannot be explained by sacred script alone: their readers
were, after all, tiny literate reefs on top to vast illiterate oceans. A fuller explanation requires a
glance at the relationship between the literati and their societies.

The fall of Latin exemplified a larger process in which the sacred communities integrated by old
sacred languages were gradually fragmented, pluralized an territorialized

The dynastic realm
‘serious’ monarchy lies traverse to all modern conceptions of political life.

- Kingship’s legitimacy derives from divinity, not from populations
- Monarchical states expanded through warfare and sexual politics (marriages to unite
populations)

Many dynasts had for some time been reaching for a ‘national’ cachet as the old principle of
legitimacy withered silently away (20th century)

, Babakiueria mockumentary
Summary of content
Soldiers arrive at barbecue-area and call it Babakiueria (colonisation). The soldiers are dressed in
military gear and judge the leasuring people to be slavenly and then assert their dominance over
them.

Stereotypes: white people can’t dance, they’re a developing people because they are starting to take
an interest in the world around them

White ghetto: typical white house(hold); breakfast (sharing hopes and dreams), father goes off to
work, mother is a housemaker, children go to school, dinner (sharing experiences)  overall simple
lives

What if they’re happy the way they are? – it’d be morally wrong for us to leave them like that

Black people invest into the development of white people but it seems like a hopeless cause

White people don’t recognize themselves on TV, which is discomforting to them

White family ties are very strong: old people get lonely

White ”religion” is very bland (betting)

White people do not participate in the celebration of their land being colonised

White culture is very “rich” and a very big part of the culture in Babakiueiria

White people like pollution and highways better than nature

White people find demonstration and protest to be their only means to gain public attention, but
these protests are often passed off as acts of unsatisfied minorities

White people are lazy but they say they’d rather go to work than relax

White people are untrustworthy and violent (sports: violence as entertainment)

White people are intelligent but insular; they tend not to mix race and worldview  black people
forced them to be differently

White people are being oppressed by black people and don’t dare to voice their complaints when
they get the opportunity to do so

Black people feel like white people need them and are hopeless without them

Death and sacrifice is the foundation of the white way of life  they want to spread these principles
all over the world

Black people arrest white people before they’ve even gotten violent to make sure their drunkenness
and seditious language doesn’t turn into violence

White people feel like they can’t voice their displeasure without getting in trouble for it

Do white people need to change their attitude to black people or vice versa? – white people have
the will and spirit to change, they just need to be neat and clean, they need to work harder, be polite
and smile more
