Book Description
Economic and cultural globalization and the worldwide threat of terrorism have contributed to the resurgence of patriotic loyalty in many parts of the world, and made the issues it raises highly topical. This collection of new essays by philosophers and political theorists engages with a wide range of conceptual, moral, and political questions raised by the current revival of patriotism. It displays both similarities and differences between patriotism and nationalism, and considers the proposal of Habermas and others to disconnect the two.Ideal as a supplementary reader for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in politics/political science especially in political theory, contemporary political ideologies and nationalism and in philosophy for courses on applied ethics and political philosophy.
Review
"Violent nationalism has made us wary of patriotism. The contributors to this well edited and scholarly collection clarify the issues involved here and argue for a variety of important positions on the ethical standing of patriotism. Any philosopher or political theorist concerned with this recently neglected but now vital topic will find this volume indispensable." -- Paul Gilbert, University of Hull, UK
"Patriotism has been a profound influence on politics, music, morality, literature and poetry. However one regards patriotism, it is not something to be sidelined by political theory. It rather cries out for close and serious academic investigation. The present volume more than meets this stringent criterion. It is a skilfully edited, absorbing and very welcome body of essays by a prestigious group of theorists" -- Andrew Vincent, University of Sheffield, UK
