This book, originally in English and now translated into Persian, is a revised version of a PhD dissertation discussing the “Origin and Development of Baloch Nationalism.” It examines theoretical writings on the subject and concludes that nationalism is a shared sense of identity among people linked by civic-territorial or linguistic-ethnic bonds, along with the belief that their collective interests are best protected through self-rule. The central theme revolves around two questions: (1) Does a Baloch nationality exist with a developed national consciousness and distinctive characteristics? (2) If so, is this consciousness, along with the determination to preserve their identity and pursue self-government, strong enough to constitute a Baloch national movement? The book fills a gap in knowledge about Baloch nationalism in Pakistan and Iran, exploring its development from the 1920s to the 1980s. Through a historical and comparative approach using primary and secondary sources, it analyses the foundations, evolution, dynamics, and implications of Baloch nationalism.
