Summary/Abstract: The classic division of sociological approaches distinguishes between structural theories and theories of social action, which explain society’s complex functioning based on the primary role of either actors or structures. This division also influences the study of nationalism, which is most often seen as a product of (elite) structural forces that disseminate the idea (or ideology) of nationalism among the population through various mechanisms. The contribution focuses on the relationship between the sociological theories, which emphasise the interconnected roles of structure and agency, and the theories of everyday and banal nationalism, which study nationalism and its influence on individual members of society
