Ann, lemme just say your point about the “nation-state” makes me question who gets included in that collective “we.” A government can claim to speak for everyone while protecting a very narrow set of interests.
Now add impunity, and people are asked to give their loyalty to institutions they can’t hold accountable. I’m glad you brought this up. That gap between belonging to a country and having a say in what it does deserves attention.
Corruption, impunity and the myth of the "Nation-State" (name one if you can...).
