Liberal Nationalism
Seeks to reconcile national self-government and cultural attachment with individual rights, democratic equality, and obligations to outsiders.
Foundational doctrines
- National self-determination
- Individual rights
- Democratic consent
- National solidarity
Disagreement and variation
The contested boundary is how far national solidarity may shape migration, cultural policy, or international duties without compromising liberal protections. The treatment of immigration, minority nations, and special duties to compatriots remains contested.
