Affronted by the xenophobic nationalists who stalked the land
during the Howard years, many progressive Australians have rejected
a love of country, forgetting that there is a patriotism of the
liberal left that at different times has advanced liberty,
egalitarianism, and democratic citizenship. Tim Soutphommasane, a
first-generation Australian and political philosopher who has
journeyed from Sydney's western suburbs to Oxford University,
re-imagines patriotism as a generous sentiment of democratic
renewal and national belonging. In accessible prose, he explains
why our political leaders will need to draw upon the better angels
of patriotism if they hope to inspire citizens for nation-building,
and indeed persuade them to make sacrifices in the hard times
ahead. As we debate the twenty-first century challenges of
reconciliation and a republic, citizenship and climate change,
Reclaiming Patriotism proposes a narrative we have to have.
