strong support for one’s nation
A political idea and feeling that people should be very loyal to their country and work to protect and advance its interests.
Padron ng paggamit:
a rise of nationalism in [place]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners often confuse 'nationalism' with 'patriotism'. 'Patriotism' usually means simple love and pride for one’s country, while 'nationalism' is more political and can include the belief that one’s nation should come first or is better than others. Also, 'nationalism' is usually uncountable, so say 'a rise in nationalism', not 'many nationalisms' in general contexts.
Mga kasingkahulugan
patriotism (Often suggests warm love and pride for one’s country; may sound less political or ideological than nationalism.)
|
national pride (Focuses more on the emotional feeling of pride, not the organized political belief.)
Mga kasalungat
cosmopolitanism (Emphasizes belonging to a global community rather than strong loyalty to a single nation.)
|
internationalism (Stresses cooperation between nations instead of putting one nation’s interests first.)

movement for national independence
The political belief that a group, region, or people should have its own government or become an independent country.
Padron ng paggamit:
[group/nationality] nationalism in [place]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners may not realize that 'nationalism' here is often tied to a specific name: 'Scottish nationalism', 'Basque nationalism', etc. It is usually not used with a plural in this sense. Also, they sometimes confuse 'nationalism' with 'nation-state'; 'nationalism' is the belief or movement, not the country itself.
Mga kasingkahulugan
separatism (Focuses specifically on wanting to break away from an existing state; nationalism in this sense may or may not demand full separation.)
|
self-determination (A more formal, legal term for the right of a people to choose their political status; does not always imply strong emotional identity like nationalism.)
Mga kasalungat
unionism (In contexts like the UK or Belgium, describes support for keeping regions together in one state, opposite to nationalist independence movements.)
|
centralism (Supports strong central power over regions, rather than separate or highly autonomous national governments.)

aggressive, exclusionary nationalism
A strong and sometimes hateful belief that your country is better than other countries and should keep others out or control them.
Padron ng paggamit:
extreme nationalism leads to [negative outcome]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes use 'nationalism' here when 'patriotism' would sound more positive. In many contexts, 'nationalism' has a negative tone, especially when combined with words like 'extreme', 'aggressive', or 'xenophobic'. Choose 'patriotism' if you want to sound clearly positive.
Mga kasingkahulugan
chauvinism (Strong, often aggressive belief that one’s group, especially one’s nation, is better than others; can also be used for male superiority over women.)
|
jingoism (Emphasizes aggressive, warlike foreign policy driven by extreme nationalism.)
Mga kasalungat
multiculturalism (Supports different cultures living together and being respected, rather than favoring only the majority nation or group.)
|
tolerance (Willingness to accept and respect people from other nations or backgrounds, which extreme nationalism often rejects.)
