• October 2019
What has to happen to bind strangers into that thing we call a “nation”? What role do stories play, and does it matter how true they are? Using the Czech Republic as a case study, Albín provokes us to reflect on the ways we all participate in constructing our own national identities.

He is now a freelance journalist and is working towards his PhD at the University of Ljubljana, Slovenia, where he lives with his wife and three children.
