프랑스의 국가정체성 형성 초기 상황에 대한 연구

초록

The French Revolution played a big role in spreading the idea that man isequal and free. After the Revolution, France needed a new spirit which couldunite the nation under a national identity appropriate to the new political systemof France. In fact, it was difficult to achieve the ideal construction of nationalidentity for the unity of the people where a nation is composed of differentraces and ethnicities as in France. Regardless, France achieved its own nationalidentity through several historical events including the Franco-German War of1870. What we note is that the national identity of France is not somethingthat was obtained passively by the passing of time, but that there were ideological foundations underneath the identity formation, to which, this paper argues, thehistorical schools in Germany and France contributed. This paper also demonstrateswhy there was a need for the construction of national identity in France andexamines the ideological foundations of the national identity formation throughthe ideas of J. Michelet.
