Categorization, framing, discursive formation: on the question of ways to interpret the nation and the national in the horizon of the order of sovereign Nations-States

Consistent distinction of the nation (as a political form of the people, which assigned sovereignty) and ethnic group (as a historical or, at least, "natural" phenomenon) in the modernist and constructivist "conceptual framework" of defining the concept of the nation involves the exclusion of "naturalizations": in this respect the modernist theory that represents the nation as a "categorical identity" (for example, K. Calhoun), from the point of view of "political calculations" rely "is not able" to implement the task. The constructivist approach (P . Brubaker) proposed the design concept of the nation to use a concept called "ethnicity without groups"; the subject of the analysis in this article is how to apply this concept in the construction of the "postmodern" concept of the nation, "purified" from all of the typical "modernist approach" "naturalizations", identifies the purpose, objectives, possible outcomes and "beneficiaries" political strategy, using a "constructivist approach" in shaping the concept of nation and national politics.
