Nationalism: A benefit for America? — with Rich Lowry and Colin Dueck | VIEWPOINT

Nationalism has become a contentious topic in American politics, especially after the election of Donald Trump in 2016. But according to AEI's Colin Dueck and Rich Lowry, editor of National Review, nationalism is the oldest tradition in American politics and offers tremendous benefits to the United States. In their new books “Age of Iron” and "The Case for Nationalism," Dueck and Lowry offer a broader perspective on nationalism and its impact on American domestic and foreign policy.

Yes. Our country needs to conservation its culture and heritage instead of exploitation of the middle class people

I'm a big fan of Jonah Goldberg but one of the things that frustrates me about him is his gut-level rejection of Nationalism as a term. He undermined his reasoning during his debate with Lowry when he conceded "I could support 'Nation-ism.'" Turns out he and Lowry are probably in near-complete philosophical agreement, just not terminological agreement. And boy... half our political discourse could be summed up as terminological misunderstandings.
