The work of Isabel King is rooted in social analysis and criticism. She scrutinized the underside of class and nationality. She unmasked sham nationalities and showed how they were created, how they profit from the system and why we should resist their corrosion of our societies. A Nationality is a political concept that involves an allegiance that is based on some ideal or lie. Nationality thus refers to class interest as well as a class consciousness. Through her articles and essays, Isabel King attempted to shed light on these opaque aspects of nationalities, revealing a rich diversity that is the basis for progressive politics.
