 Money, Method, and the Market Process Ch 11
Economic nationalism is the corollary of the present-day domestic policies of government interference with business and of national planning as free trade was the complement of domestic economic freedom.
A small group of economists are intent on demonstrating that economic nationalism is detrimental to the rightly understood selfish interests of all men and all nations and that everybody should aim at free trade, not for the sake of foreigners, but for the sake of his own people.
I have not at all exaggerated the detrimental consequences of economic nationalism.

 NATIONALISM AND ECONOMIC POLICY IN FORMER YUGOSLAVIA   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
Nationalism is not a new phenomenon in former Yugoslavia.
In contrast with political nationalism, however, which was regarded to be a major threat to the unity of the Yugoslav federation and hence was continuously suppressed using authoritarian methods, there were apparently no deliberate policy measures to stop the continuous strengthening of economic nationalism.
On the contrary, economic nationalism was greatly facilitated by the economic reforms in the late 1960s and the early 1970s, which introduced substantial decentralization of the economy and autonomy in policy-making for the single republics in most fields.

So clearly for her, the spirit of capitalism, which she identifies as arising with nationalism in sixteenth-century England, could not be merely the prevalence of this mercantile economy.

 Leon Trotsky: Nationalism and Economic Life (1934)
The French nation was consolidated in the storms and tempests of democratic revolution at the close of the18th century.

 ISN Security Watch - Economic nationalism could slow liberalization
Attempts to use the state to protect economic interests are normal, and success or failure is mainly dependent on the domestic balance of power, which in large advanced economies is determined by continual face-offs between winning and losing industries and sectors.
Their failure is another indication that sentiments of economic nationalism are providing added energy to protectionist interests, giving them victories on issues in which they would have lost or at least have had to compromise in climates of opinion more favorable to trade liberalization.
Signs of growing economic nationalism in the US - where mounting, though still inchoate, popular resistance to liberalization of global markets finds resonance in Congress - do not portend a radical shift to protectionism, but a normalization of trade policy, in which internationalist and nationalist interests compete for influence in the state.

 Jonah Goldberg on Economic Nationalism on National Review Online
To read the financial and European press, economic nationalism is the avian flu of public policy, spreading the bacillus of protectionism from one society to the next.
But that consensus is unraveling as formerly unrelated issues — immigration, trade, outsourcing, globalization, national security, homeland security, the war on terrorism — melt together in the fire of populist anger.
In terms of economic policy, nationalism is indistinguishable from socialism.

 Recent columns: Cue the vapid economic nationalism
Economic nationalists never get around to explaining just how Canada’s sovereignty -- the right of our governments to make laws for the public good -- is tied up in the ownership of a private corporation.
On the other hand, economic protectionism is, quite obviously, bad for the global economy as a whole.
It's funny how economic nationalist don't like to talk about the possible fallout which would insue if foreign countries and markets were to retaliate against these types of regressive policies.

But of the two-thirds focus of the President's speech on economic issues, it is disturbing that the route of charter change remains the government's preferred way of fighting its declared war on poverty.
And yet, some of our economic planners and technocrats still have the temerity to suggest that we need more liberalization, deregulation and privatization as the solutions to the crisis, totally oblivious to the fact that the hollowing out of the economy and the unprecedented crisis in unemployment are a direct consequence of these policies.
For this, we need a sense of economic nationalism, a sense of what we as a nation, united, can be capable of and can aspire to be.

 Global Capital and Economic Nationalism (Part 2)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
Followed as it was by the Asian crisis of the late 1990s, the economic retreat of this former keystone in the "end of U.S. hegemony" theories has left much of U.S. capital in a stronger position in the shifting geography of economic domination than most pundits thought possible only a few years ago.
The bumps in the process were experienced by most people in the economic North as a part of the rivalry of two conflicting social systems embodied in the Cold War or the distant echo of national liberation movements.

 EconLog, Economic Nationalism, Arnold Kling: Library of Economics and Liberty
A modern western nation is an "agreement" or "contract" between a large group of people to live according to a certain set of rules.
I think the difference between Adam Smith and Karl Marx is that people who ascribe to and teach Smith's economics (and of his successors) do not still teach the labor theory of value, while many of the folk Marxists and actual Marxists I work with today do in fact believe this fallacious theory.
People that being up Marx, still considered (goodness knows why) a respectable economist by many, on an economics blog is surely not a sign of a desperate strike; it may be a reasonable, well thought out and valid counter-argument.

We can agree that the economic rationalist policies of Labor and the Coalition place little value on social, environmental and community interests, and are creating a more selfish and uncaring society.

THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONALISM that the Labor party is trying to foster is in principle something that conservatives heartily approve of.
Two areas where they cannot be expected to approve of it, however, are where it implies a diminution of our family-type ties with Britain and where it clashes with our economic self-interest.
Unfortunately, it is in their economic nationalism that the Labor party most clearly has the gut-reaction of the average Australian on its side: I refer to their opposition to foreign investment.
