User:Mabandalone/Drafts/Patriotism
an emotional attachment to, and support for one's homeland or country
Change existing definition as it includes 'nation'. Patriotism doesn't have to involve nations
Definition for patriotism: "There is broad agreement on the meaning of patriotism as “a deeply felt affective attachment to the nation” (Conover and Feldman 1987, 1) or the “degree of love for and pride in one’s nation” (Kosterman and Feshbach 1989, 271)." http://www.u.arizona.edu/~jag/POL596A/HuddyKhatibAJPS2007.pdf
Nationalism and patriotism
[edit]- Some have defined patriotism as pride in a country, and nationalism as thinking your country is better than other countries. May find evidence for this in Blank and Schmidt 2003, and Schatz & Staub 1997
