New Nationalism

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

New Nationalism

American political policy espoused by Theodore Roosevelt. Influenced by Herbert Croly's The Promise of American Life (1910), Roosevelt used the phrase in a speech in which he tried to reconcile the liberal and conservative wings of the Republican Party. New Nationalism called for federal intervention to promote social justice and the economic welfare of the underprivileged. In 1912, as the presidential candidate of the Progressive Party, Roosevelt ran unsuccessfully on a platform based on the precepts of New Nationalism. See also Robert La Follette.

For what can also be said with some confidence is that there is a crucial relationship between the capacity of a new nationalism to mobilize people and retain their allegiance, and the depth of its rootedness in pre-existing loyalties and identities, whether ethnic or religious.
