Benedict Anderson, Imagined Communities: Reflections on the Origins and Spread of Nationalism (1983)
National-building depends on a process of “imagining a community.”

Any nation is an “imagined political community” because “members of even the smallest nation will never know their fellow-members, meet them, or even hear them, yet in the minds of each lives the image of their communion.”--Benedict Anderson

The nation is imagined as• Limited—the nation has finite boundaries
beyond which there are other nations• Sovereign—the nation is free and self-
governing• A Community—regardless of any actual
inequality and exploitation, the nation is conceived as a deep and inclusive comradeship

To imagine a community effectively, people use symbol and representations; they manipulate definitions of belonging to bring people into the nation.
