Ernst Renan,
“What is a Nation?' In a lecture delivered at the University of Sorbonne in 1882, the French
philosopher Ernst Renan (1823-92) outlined his understanding of what makes a nation. In this essay
Renan criticizes the notion suggested by others that a nation is formed by a common language, race,
religion, or territory:
'A nation is the culmination of a long past of endeavors, sacrifice and devotion. A heroic past, great
men, glory, that is the social capital upon which one bases a national idea. To have common glories in
the past, to have a common will in the present, to have performed great deeds together, to wish to
perform still more, these are the essential conditions of being a people. A nation is therefore a large-
scale solidarity ... Its existence is a daily plebiscite ... A province is its inhabitants; if anyone has the
right to be consulted, it is the inhabitant. A nation never has any real interest in annexing or holding on
to a country against its will. The existence of nations is a good thing, a necessity even. Their existence
is a guarantee of liberty, which would be lost if the world had only one law and only one master.
