Re: Mega-Events and Cultural Citizenship

First of all, I'm really impressed by your summaries of the text(s), usually listing all most important aspects in a nutshell, without copying the original text. It's perfect for later reference, e.g. you would like Roche in your final article in 2 months and just have to read those notes that are to the point.
As far as your question on nation-states is concerned: I provided an explanation in the Glossary of Terms in Moodle. Let me know if that still leaves you uncertain about adequate meaning.
