PATRIOTISM
 Patriotism or national pride is a sense of love, dedication, and attachment to a country and an alliance
with other people who share the same impression. This attachment can be a mixture of many distinct
emotions, including ethnic, cultural, political, or historical elements, related to one's own country.
 It is a predominant virtue linked to a nation's love, with greater emphasis on values and beliefs. One
who is patriotic will be willing to offer any sacrifice to his nation. He'll never live alone egotistically.
 For example, for the sake of his country, a soldier makes the ultimate sacrifice of his life. For no
other reason than being a citizen of that nation, patriotism is a dedication to one's nation. In
essence, patriotism is a sense of attachment and dedication to a country, nation, political
community, or just country love.
 The English word patriot is first known in the Elizabethan period;
 it originated from Latin (6th century) patriota via Middle French, meaning "countryman,"
 Greek (patriotes), meaning from the same nation'
 (Patris), meaning "fatherland"
 The abstract noun patriotism appeared in the early 18th century.

Kinds of Patriotism
1. Patriotism of Duty -This includes fidelity to one's nation through material acts. This is military service
patriotism and other selfless sacrifice types. This is where patriotism becomes embodied and its ideals take
praiseworthy particular actions.
2. Patriotism of Affection -This is the patriotism of the heart. It is about one's internal desire for his country's
well-being. The patriotism of affection can be seen in the patriotism of duty, but it does not
necessarily result in it; one can truly love his country and yet be a coward, just as one can theoretically fulfill a
patriotic duty and yet feel apathetic about the country's welfare.
3. Patriotism of Manners -This is customs patriotism, written and unwritten the patriotism of manners is to
place one's hand over the heart during the national anthem. It can be performed by anyone without actually
needing affection or duty patriotism. While the above types of patriotism show. At least in part, the real
beliefs and hopes of a person, the patriotism of manners establishes mostly a set of protocols

Types of Patriotism
1. Personal Patriotism - Is emotional and voluntary. The patriot adheres to certain patriotic values, such as
respect for the flag or the honoring of veterans. Other expressions of personal patriotism include enlisting in
the army, public service, and participation in the political process through voting or other forms of activism.
2. Official Patriotism - Promoted by the government which has a high symbolic and ceremonial content. It is
a logical consequence of the state itself, which derives legitimacy from being the expression of the common
good of the political community.
Examples;
 National monuments, and veterans’ days
 and commemoration ceremonies
 Often official patriotism is highly regulated by protocol, with specific methods for handling flags, or
specific pledges and displays of allegiance.
 Official patriotism relies heavily on symbolic acts, such as displaying the flag, singing the national
anthem, saying a pledge, participating in a mass rally, placing a patriotic bumper sticker on one's
vehicle, or any other way of publicly proclaiming allegiance to the state.
3. Symbolic Patriotism - In wartime is intended to raise morale, in turn contributing to the war effort.
4. Peacetime Patriotism - This cannot be so easily linked to a measurable gain for the state, but the patriot
does not see it as inferior.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PATRIOTISM AND NATIONALISM

Patriotism feelings are based on the country's positive values-like liberty, justice, and equality. The patriot
thinks that both their country's state system and individuals are inherently good and working together to
achieve a better quality of life. Patriots do not degrade other countries automatically.

On the other hand, nationalism emotions are based on the belief that one's nation is superior to all others. It
also holds a connotation of other countries' distrust or disapproval, leading to the premise that other states
are competitors. Nationalists do, sometimes to the point of calling for the global dominance of their country.
Nationalism is the polar opposite of globalism by its protectionist beliefs.
According to Sydney J. Harris, the patriot is proud of his nation for what it does, and the nationalist is proud of
his nation whatever it does; the first approach generates a sense of accountability and the second a sense of
blind stupidity leading to war.
