Nationalism, the state of mind in which the individual's supreme
loyalty is owed to the nation-state, remains the strongest of
political emotions. As a historical phenomenon, it is always in
flux, changing according to no preconceived pattern. In The New
Nationalism, Louis Snyder sees various forms of nationalism, and
categorizes them as a force for unity; a force for the status quo;
a force for independence; a force for fraternity; a force for
colonial expansion; a force for aggression; a force for economic
expansion; and a force for anti-colonialism. In Snyder's opinion,
nationalism should be differentiated from Theodore Roosevelt's "New
Nationalism," a phrase he borrowed from Herbert D. Croly's The
Promise of American Life. Croly warned that giving too much power
to big industry and finance would lead to the degradation of the
masses, and that state and federal intervention must be pursued on
all economic fronts. Roosevelt expanded upon this concept, and saw
the flourishing of democratic government as a means of reviving the
old pioneer sense of individualism and opportunity. Snyder, in
contrast, extends the work of the two major pioneers in the study
of modern nationalism, Carlton J. H. Hayes and Hans Kohn, in
exploring this most powerful sentiment of modern times, and showing
how it relates to the political, economic, and psychological
tendencies of historical development.
