The landscape for considerations about nations, nationality, and ethnicity is a confusing one. It cannot be mapped without the kind of engagement exemplified by the papers presented in this Special Issue: examination of specific matters and illumination of the individual jigsaw puzzle pieces out of which the bigger and far more complicated picture will develop. Particularity produces clarity, and it is only through careful examination of each piece in the puzzle, one by one, that it becomes possible to discern the true contours of these concepts.
