NATIONALISM
• Nationalism is a political, social, and
economic ideology and movement
characterized by the promotion of the
interests of a particular nation, especially with
the aim of gaining and maintaining the
nation's sovereignty over its homeland.

• It is a feeling that drives a people together


as a nation.

• It is love of country expressed in devotion


and advocacy of national interest and
independence.
The growth of Nationalism can be attributed to
two major revolutions of the earlier century:

AMERICAN REVOLUTION OF 1776


The American Revolution gave birth to the
United States of America.

FRENCH REVOLUTION OF 1789


The French Revolution led to the overthrowing
the absolute rule of the Bourbon Dynasty
and the abolition of Feudal System.

Both revolutions
gave birth to the
idea that an
individual’s loyalty
has to be to his
nation not to the
NATIONALISM IS ONE OF THE RADICAL IDEAS IN
THE YEARS AFTER 1815, WHICH INFLUENCED THE
MODERN WORLD TREMENDOUSLY.

Three points that stand out in the complex idea of NATIONALISM

- Nationalism has evolved from a real or imagined cultural unity,


manifesting itself in a common language, history and territory.

- Nationalists have usually sought to turn this cultural unity into


political reality so that the territory of each coincides with its state
boundaries.

- Nationalists believe that every nation has the right to exist in freedom
and develop its character and spirit.
The development of
Nationalism in the
Philippines was very
slow. Loyalty to the
nation began only after
the unjust execution of
Father Mariano Gomez,
Jose Apolonio Burgos,
and Jacinto Zamora
(GOMBURZA) on
February 17, 1872.

Liberalism is a political doctrine that takes


protecting and enhancing the freedom of the
individual to be the central problem of
politics. Liberals typically believe that
government is necessary to protect
individuals from being harmed by others.
Liberalism was first realized successfully in
the American Revolution and then achieved
in part of French Revolution.
DEMOCRACY is a system of
government in which power is
vested in the people, who rule
either directly or through freely
elected representatives.

Democracy became a way of


life in many European
countries like:

Great Britain
Belgium
Switzerland
DEMOCRACY was gradually established
thru the following means:

• Promulgation of laws that advance


democracy
• Undertaking of reforms thru legislation
• Abolition of slavery
• Adoption of a liberal constitution
• Providing the citizens the opportunity to
propose laws
• Adoption of manhood suffrage
• Granting of political, economic, and social
rights to the people.
