	Nationalism - Encyclopedia.WorldSearch (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		However, in the late 20th century, theorists of nationalism influenced by postmodernism began to argue that the concept of nations is a socially constructed phenomenon.
		All forms of nationalism rely on the population being a nation; that is, that all the members of the population believe that they share some kind of common culture, and culture can't be wholly separated from ethnicity.

	Nationalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Nationalism should nevertheless be distinguished from patriotism, since the former focuses on the national community that is situated, for the most part, within civil society while the latter stresses instead the civic or political community, that which is expressed by a state or government.
		Nations have national symbols, a national character, a national culture, a national music and national literature; national folklore, a national mythology and - in some cases - even a national religion.
		The nation state is intended to guarantee the existence of a nation, to preserve its distinct identity, and to provide a territory where the national culture and ethos are dominant.

	Great American Novel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The "Great American Novel" is the concept of a novel that perfectly represents the spirit of life in the United States at the time of its publication.
		More broadly, however, it has its origins in American nationalism and the call for American counterparts to the "Great English Writers." It is an ideological call for American cultural distinctness, and identity.
		Thus, "Great American Novel" is a metaphor for identity, a Platonic ideal that is not achieved in any specific texts, but whose aim writers strive to mirror in their work.

	American Nationalism - Stormfront White Nationalist Community (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		One of the problems with American nationalism is the ethnic mixing of Anglo-Saxons, and other whites in America, along with the presence of an unique antebellum society, the civil war, the confederacy, the lasting effects of the Ku Klux Klan in their attempt to restart this American nationalism in the 1920's, and other factors.
		American nationalism implies, among many other things, that the nation is precisely for the Ameriacn citizens; consequently the US financial and military subservience to Israel or any othery must end.
		I have observed that a "Nationalism" in Europe is programmaticaly for the supremacy of the White race, the expulsion of the Jews, the exclusion of homosexuals, and for the Christian religion.

	People's Daily Online -- American nationalism viewed from Bush's inauguration (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Second, due to the nation's superior natural and geographical conditions, and its history of never being invaded, American nationalism is void of historical bitterness found in typical nationalism of some other peoples.
		Third, American nationalism shows a strong inclination of being self-centered, a combination of an isolationism tendency (being distain to associate with other peoples) and a sense of mission to save "the fettered world" by whatever means it desires.
		In the country some people call for the fourth American Revolution to build a new America under the banner of nationalism; some claim that the victory of American nationalism is of global implication, for which America must assume responsibility as leader of a free world.

	Blood Sacrifice and the Nation: Revisiting Civil Religion*
		In American nationalism the transformed totem is the soldier resurrected in the raised flag.
		In the case of American nationalism, that god is the group symbolized in the totem fetish, the flag, and embodied in the totem leader, the President.
		American presidential elections are prototypic contrived rituals of sacrifice and regeneration.

		The demonstrations in the united nations gallery interpreted the murder of Lumumba as the international lynching of a fl man on the altar of colonialism and white supremacy.
		The American dream and the American promise of full citizenship, with dignity, after being so long delayed, is now being discarded as a hope and an objective by large numbers of Afro-Americans.
		In identifying their fight for national liberation with the new resurgence of Pan-Africanism (actually an Afro-American creation) the Afro-American not only as an instrument for the unification of Africa, but as a broader means for the unification of all people of African descent the world over.

	Who We Are: Constructivism and the Dual Personality of American Nationalism
		Nationalism is the embodiment of sovereignty, self-determination and autonomy for groups.
		American identity finds a basis in competition between political ideas about roles of government, namely civic thought coupled with liberal ideology, belief in a national mission heavily influenced by religious symbols, and the battle of cultural uniformity with diversity.
		Being an American is to be an individual with choices, to be “in control of your own destiny.” Being an American is to savor the fruits of individual choice: “economic achievement,” Yankee ingenuity, “self expression”....As an American, you’re born with rights...

	"Nationalism and its Discontents" by Michael Lind
		Instead of seeing a shift from nationalism to non-nationalist religion, then, we are witnessing, in much of the world (including the United States) the displacement of secular nationalism by religious nationalism.
		If religious nationalism is considered, as it should be, a form of nationalism, then Wiebe's obituary for nationalism may prove to be as premature as Hobsbawm's.
		His solution to the horrors perpetrated in nationalism's name is to downgrade the power of states and encourage a "diversity of loyalties." What exactly he had in mind is not clear.

	American Nationalism: Addressing the Challenge of Identity and Threat - Carnegie Endowment for International Peace
		Lieven analyzes the diverse and conflicting currents in contemporary American nationalism, arguing that aspects of this nationalism are the greatest present threat to American hegemony in the world--greater even than the actions of America’s enemies.
		Although a foundation of America’s global leadership, this nationalism is flawed by a tendency to messianism and the self-defeating pursuit of absolutist goals on the international stage.
		The other strain in American nationalism, by contrast, is pessimistic, embittered, and chauvinist, rooted in citizens who feel they have suffered a series of historical defeats at the hands of modern economic, social, and cultural change.

	Dangerfield, "The Awakening of American Nationalism, 1815-1828" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		It is the particular confrontation of American economic nationalism with the Liberal Toryism of Lord Liverpool and William Huskisson which this book delineates with exceptional vigor and depth....
		John Quincy Adams, variously described as a neomercantilist and a continentalist, was the conspicuously unsuccessful advocate of economic nationalism, while Jackson was to emerge as the beneficiary and symbol of democratic nationalism.
		It thus came into direct conflict with 'democratic nationalism,' which is symbolized, if not defined, by the demand for mechanic's lien laws in the East, debtor relief in the West, and an end to monopolies everywhere.

		She examines the tension found between nationalism and internationalism in the time period of 1880 to 1939 by discussing each country’s wish to recognize her citizen’s accomplishments while maintaining good relations with other countries.
		The author explains his choice of the United States as the focus of his research project with the statement that there is a limited amount of studies on American nationalism and that one can gain a clearer image of the transition from a state to a nation by examining America as opposed to other countries.
		This source is useful in its compilation of specific data related to American nationalism from 1890 to 1930.

		The second value is exceptionalism, which says that Americans have a right to pursue policies to preserve their national sovereignty, but other countries do not have a similar right.
		During the tenure of the second President Bush, the U.S. is battling three nations that comprise an axis of evil, in addition to battling other nations suspected of harboring terrorists and all terrorists of global reach.
		Similarly, most Americans are not troubled when their defense secretary says that the Iraqis can elect any government as long as it is not an Islamic theocracy.

	The New York Review of Books: Extreme Makeover (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		The word "nationalism" never quite seemed to fit the United States, where continental vastness and enormous power have hitherto been tempered by an often-expressed distaste for empire and by the notion of world leadership by example.
		Lieven contrasts the high idealism of American civic nationalism, the "American Creed"—liberty, constitutionalism, law, democracy, individualism, and the separation of church and state—with current hypernationalistic attitudes that influence both domestic and foreign affairs.
		Criticism by a foreigner on sensitive national issues is always likely to raise hackles, especially when readers may have a strong feeling that some of the criticisms are right on the mark.

		Evidence as to the cause of the explosion was inconclusive and contradictory, but the American press, led by the two New York papers, proclaimed that this was certainly a despicable act of sabotage by the Spaniards.
		A war that was in part fueled by the American public desire to end the alleged abuse of Cuban natives, would in the end result in three territorial conquests for the US, tens of thousands of Spaniards and Cubans killed, and the extermination of a quarter of a million Philippinos.
		The Spanish-American War is significant in American history, as it saw the largely pacifist nation emerge as an imperial power, equal at least to any in Europe.

	Nationalism
		Thus “nations” are unified by a sense of purpose: the control of their territory, not their ethnic similarities.
		The most widely spread definition of “nationalism” is when a person is said to have a sense of pride for their nation.
		Nationalism is either thought of as an attempt to get new territories or as a group of people having a unified national identity.

	Conversation with Anatol Lieven, p. 4 of 7
		Since most Americans don't realize that they do have a nationalism and that it is so strong, perhaps it does make it more difficult for Americans to appreciate and understand the force of other peoples' nationalism.
		The problem is that in the perception by the rest of the world, this kind of American nationalism crashes head on into [the perception of] America as a country which is trying to spread peaceful, stable, liberal democracy, human rights, and so forth.
		This unfortunately produces perceptions of American hypocrisy and unreliability, and undermines this American creed, which is a critical foundation of the legitimacy of American leadership in the world.

		Most American whites do not have a conception as to HOW the Jews have become so well entranched in evey sphere of life and HOW they have "converted" most Americans, over the last 100 years, to their side (without having to adopt their religion)!

		Above all, it may be considered a time of the evolution and ripening of American nationalism.
		It is the special virtue of Dangerfield's brilliant synthesis of the period that he manages to keep the focus on this central theme--the contest between the economic nationalism expounded by Henry Clay and John Quincy Adams and the democratic nationalism exemplified by the partisans of Andrew Jackson.
		It is the confrontation of American economic nationalism with the Liberal Toryism of Lord Liverpool and William Huskisson that this book delineates with exceptional brilliance and depth.

		Rather than rally to America as the beacon of liberty, other nations (particular European and Muslim ones) feel repelled and threatened by the cavalier and unilateral superpower.
		Lieven's provocative final chapter argues that much of U.S. support for Israel is rooted not in the "civic creed" (e.g., support for a fellow liberal democracy) but in a nationalism that sees the Israelis as heroic cowboys and the Palestinians as savages who must be driven from their land, as Jackson did the Cherokees.
		Cogently argued, this is an important contribution to the discourse on national identity, the war on terror and the nature of political liberalism.
