Nationalism and globalism are locked in an ongoing debate and will be for the foreseeable
future. The Virtue of Nationalism is one contribution to this debate and describes well how
tradition-minded nationalists might stand.
For this assignment, review Yoram Hazony’s The Virtue of Nationalism. Describe his overall
thesis for the nation-state system. Be sure to address his analysis of arguments against the nation-
state based on the hate/mistreatment of minorities. Analyze the strengths and weaknesses of his
model using a variety of scholarly sources and summarize your own opinion.
