It very much depends on how you define nationalism. If it means just being proud of your country and your roots that's one thing, if it means treating people who come from other countries into your own as second class citizens or making their lives hell simply beause they don't originate from the country they now live in, then yes, it's racism in my view.

To the extent some of the radical statements of 'taking back your land' and 'we didn't cross the border, the border crossed us' are taken seriously as battle cries for the demonstraters, it is an issue of nationalism.  Those people are saying that by force or by attrition and demographics they want to 'reconquer' the border states with Mexico.  If that isn't nationalism, I don't know what is.\n\nAnd to the extent people respond to that particular way of framing the issue, you see a response to an attack on the nation, which is also nationalist.

In the United States, such coerced nationalism has been called un-Constitutional by the U.S.Supreme Court. In countries such as South Korea, even law-abiding model citizens among Jehovah's Witnesses are still penalized for refraining from joining in such ostensibly heartfelt expressions.

Yes. Europeans imported the concept of nationalism to Africa, which is meaningless to people that have expressed loyalty toward their own ethnic group or culture than their "nation". If you look at a place like Nigeria, there are several different languages spoken there besides English.\n  At the Berlin Conference of 1888, when European nations carved up Africa for themselves, that did it irregardless of the cultures in the region. Nationalism is one issue that African nations are going to adjust to.\n  Also, I would have to agree with the first answer, European customs have done away with the modes of government that have worked for them, long before Europe was even interested in African colonization.\n  Another issue is the issue of education. Europe used Africa for raw goods and resources and left Africans in a poor position to function well on their own. One example is the Congo. The Belgians robbed the Congo of their natural resources( Congo is one of the most resource abundant nations on Earth, yet it is one of the poorest) and left the Congelese uneducated. All of the professionals in the Congo such as doctors, etc were all Belgian.By analogy, Botswana also was colonized by Britain, and they are well-educated and have incorporated ancient customs with Western ideas.\n  In short, nationalism, education, and erosion of some of Africa's ancient forms of government are some of the causes of the problems in Africa today.

In political science, a "nation" refers to a group of people who feel bound into a single body by shared culture, values, folkways, religion and/or language.  A "state" just refers to a patch of land with a sovereign government.  States often coincide with nations (and are called "nation-states," but not always.  States that overlap multiple nations tend to have civil wars; states that exclude parts of a nation tend to have wars with the neighboring state(s) that contain the rest of the nation.

You should make difference between patriotism and nationalism. They are both love for ones country, but the first has a positive conotation and the second has a negative.\nSo the result can be from preventing imigrants in the coutry to more drastic things. Such as violation of human rights and gun use.

Nationalism....everyone had a heightend sense of pride in their own nation. It would be easier to bring up soliders for the "great war" since everyone believed their nation to be best and worth fighting for. Also like nations got into alliances and often these alliances got quite tangled and would eventually be seenas probably the one of the main causes for the war. Imperalism....the powers that be in Europe were all competing on the international level for resources, markets, and prestige. The highly hostile and competitive atmosphere because of conflicting interests helped add to a war climate. Militarism... since most of the main powers needed a strong military to be able to exert their imperial dominance, strong militaries were popular during the period. As one nation built up their arms, the others would follow suit in order to avoid the balance of power from tipping to far one way. Each of these causes helped build a foundation for war which was sparked because of the archdukes assination.

A Nation that has no recognition by many Countries.\n\nFor instance only Turkey and an Islamic organization recognizes The Turkish Republic of Cyprus as a real Country.\n\nSo thus that Country has become a good place for wanted Criminals to flee to because according to the laws of the U.S. and several other Countries, the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus does not exist.\n\nAnd you can't pull wanted criminals out of Countries that don't exist.

This is difficult to answer as a country is not the same as a nation state, eg The UK is a Nation state made up by 4 different countries (Scotland, N.ireland, Wales, England), There are also countries that are not recoginsed within other nation states e.g The Basques, Catalans etc in Spain. \n\nMost commenators exept that there are 243 countries and 193 Nation states, but this is alos wrong as none of the above countries are listed \n\nThere are currently 193 Nation States recognised by the United Nations — its 192 members and the Vatican City, \n\nThis exludes the countries that are not Nation States and one that are but not in the UN  like Taiwain, The Palastine Authority

There are lots; many more than could be listed here in any sort of reasonable manner.  The vast majority of them you'd have never heard of unless you were a micronations trivia buff.  \n\nSome of them, like Sealand, the Kingdom of Lovely, or Minerva are quasi-well known - mostly though they exist only in the minds of their King/President/Grand-High-Muckity-Muck.\n\nNote too, that these countries are generally recognized by nobody - not the UN, not the US, not the EU, Canada, China, or any other place.  Some of them have established 'treaties' with other micronations and recognise each other - often to the exclusion of recognizing UN-recognised countries.\n\nThose are the only 'countries' that are not recognized as such by the UN and others.  There is also a classification of 'proto-states' which have much more legitimacy than the micronations, but due to forces historical, military, or political, arn't currently recognised as anything more than Countries-in-Training, or nations within a state.  Some of these (though it's not an exclusive list, and there is wide disagreement on what to include and what not to include) are: Taiwan, Palestine, Tibet, Kurdistan, Gibraltar, and others.\n\nVery occasionally (as with East Timor) these proto-states will eventually break free of whatever is holding them back and achieve recognition.
