Abstract
This set of essays is based on a panel session convened at the 2009 meeting of the Association of American Geographers, which sought to explore the many challenges and pitfalls involved with teaching nationalism as a topic in geography classrooms. The authors offer different but complementary insights into the practical difficulties and potential strategies for covering an innately difficult topic. The discussion of nationalism in the essays is also an effective venue with which to further engage discussions of critical pedagogy.
