About this ebook
The Virtue of Nationalism by Yoram Hazony | Conversation Starters
The Virtue of Nationalism is written by one of the leading conservative thinkers in our world today – Yoram Hazony. In his book, he argues that the only realistic guard of liberty in today’s world in the nationalist order. He says that nationalism is the real issue of our age. Hazony cites the politics behind Donald Trump’s “America First” to the rise of the right in European nations to Brexit. In The Virtue of Nationalism, he asserts that our world has been dominated by sovereign nations who become the only option for the citizens who care about their personal and collective freedom. Hazony recounts that even in the sixteenth century, the Dutch, English and American protestants revived national independence and eventually showed how their vision brought freedom from Israel to Ethiopia, Poland to India. Hazony implores his readers that if we want to limit conflicts and hate and if we want innovation to flourish, this is the very tradition that we must restore.
