Nationalism

Nationalism is a political ideology that believes in loyalty to one's nation, usually based on ethnic connections, historical ties, or loyalty to shared institutions. Nationalism was the philosophy behind the creation of the Nation-State in the 1800s, resulting in the unification of Germany and Italy and the disintegration of the Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian Empires along ethnic lines. Nationalism was always opposed by cosmopolitanism and in today's global economy, the dialogue between advocates of either tends to be tense.

How was propaganda and nationalism used to mobilize the civilian population?

Asked by Wiki User

Clarification first: The propaganda for World War 1 and 2 were for patriotism and motivation to help or to join the military. It was not for nationalism. That is another form of government and political ideology. The propaganda consisted of posters, news paper notices and ads, film clips, and radio messages (oh and magazines too). The topics were "join up", cooperate with the rationing, "be a helper in the war effort", "join the Red Cross", "join and auxiliary group or women join the forces to aid the men on the war front." There were also posters and notices for nurses to join up and help the wounded and sick soldiers, sailors and marines and pilots. There were huge efforts to get people to buy war bonds since they funded the wars. It worked well. They also came up with the idea for the victory gardens to help the ration programs along.

Why did a Serbian nationalist assassinate the heir to the Austro-Hungarain throne?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The Austro-Hungarian Empire at the time was a nation of officially two cultures and languages - German and Hungarian. Francis Ferdinand believed that Serbians deserved to be a third culture with official representation on the Imperial level, which upset the Serbian government, which was seeking to 'liberate' Bosnia and the other Serbic territories from Austria. Therefore, they had the Archduke assassinated via their Bosnian puppet organization, the Black Hand, to keep him from pacifying nationalism in Bosnia.

Some Orthodox Jews did not approve of the modern nation of Israel, because it was created by humans via the United Nations. It was not directly created by God. Most Jews have no problem with the modern nation of Israel, and those Orthodox Jews are in the minority as far as most Jews are concerned.

Rise of Indian nationalism: Indians did not generally feel content

about British rule in India. Indians lacked equal job opportunities.They were not allowed to advance to high positions in government service or to become officers in the army. In 1885, a number of

Indian lawyers and professionals formed the Indian National Congress. Members of the organization belonged to various religions and came from all parts of India. Congress members debated political

and economic reforms, the future of India, and ways for Indians to achieve equal status with the British.

Some Muslims believed the Indian National Congress was a Hindu organization aiming for Hindu rule. In 1906, several Muslim leaders, encouraged by the British, formed the All-India Muslim League.

Members of the organization sought to give the Muslims a voice in political affairs. However, most Muslims continued to support the Indian National Congress.

In 1905, the British divided the state of Bengal into separate Hindu and Muslim sections. Indians protested this action with a boycott of British goods and a series of bombings and shootings. In an effort to stop the violence, the British introduced the Morley-Minto Reforms of 1909. These reforms enlarged the viceroy's executive council to include an Indian. They also allowed Indians to elect representatives to the provincial legislative councils. In 1911, the British reunited Bengal.

When World War I broke out in 1914, Britain declared that India was also at war with Germany. Indian troops fought in many parts of the world. In return for support, the British promised more reforms

and agreed to let Indians have a greater role in political affairs. Nevertheless, protests against the British continued.

In March 1919, the British passed the Rowlatt Acts to try to control protests in India. The acts attempted to restrict the political liberties and rights of Indians, including the right to trial by jury. But demonstrations against the government increased in response to the

acts. On April 13, 1919, thousands of Indians assembled in an enclosed area in Amritsar. Troops entered the meeting place and blocked the

entrance. The British commander then ordered the soldiers to open fire on the unarmed crowd. The shots killed about 400 people and wounded about 1,200. This event, called the Amritsar Massacre, proved to be a turning point. From then on, Indians demanded

complete independence from British rule. The British promised more reforms, but at the same time, they tried to crush the independence movement.

The Montagu-Chelmsford Reforms were passed in late 1919 and went into full effect in 1921. The reforms increased the powers of the provincial legislative councils, where Indians were most active. The central legislative council was replaced by a legislature with most of its members elected. However, the viceroy and the governors still had

the right to veto any bill. The Indians did not believe the reforms gave them enough power.

By 1920, Mohandas K. Gandhi had become a leader in the Indian independence movement and in the Indian National Congress, which had become the most important Indian political organization. Gandhi

persuaded the Congress to adopt his program of nonviolent disobedience, also known as nonviolent nonco-operation. Gandhi's program asked Indians to boycott British goods, to refuse to pay taxes, and to stop using British schools, courts, and government

services. As a result, some Indians gave up well-paying jobs that required them to cooperate with the British. Gandhi changed the Indian National Congress from a small party of educated men to a

mass party with millions of followers. ---- History| Early Times | The Aryans |

Yea, nationalism played an important role in two world wars. In both wars, Germans, who were very conscious of their nationalistic attitude, tried to conquer and rule the whole world. During 2nd world war, Italy under Mussolini joined hands with Hitler of Germany in the race with the same nationalistic vigor.The other countries who joined the axis did not have the same nationalistic feeling, with the only objective of ousting the German-Italy duo and to make an end of the years long world war and establish world peace.

What are the causes for Zionism?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Herzl explained quite well that the European concept of a nation-state was dependent on the idea that all of the people in any particular nation were of the same ethnic stock and heritage. Jews were branded by this system to be "the Other" and were regarded at best as possible equals and at worse as traitors, spies, thieves, and fifth columns. When the Dreyfus Affair turned out marches in Paris that said "Death to the Jews" on account of a kangaroo court against a particular guiltless Jew, it became clear that the Jew could not be integrated into Europe. After the Holocaust, the strongest proof that the Jew and the European Nation-State were irreconcilable, this view persists. In Europe, it is now directed at the Muslims since the Jews are not large enough of a threat to the European System. Unlike Muslims, though, which can return to their countries of origin if the discrimination becomes intolerable, the Jews did not have such a place. This is why the Jewish State is necessary. Since it came into existence it has accepted Jewish political refugees from over 50 nations and flown missions at its own expense to rescue Jews from at least 10 nations.

What was the impact of the Rise of Zionism on the Arab-Israeli conflict?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Arab Nationalism as a movement developed as a movement in opposition to European Colonialism and Imperialism. Using European conceptions of the nation-state, Arabs declared that they should not be under the heel of a foreign government from abroad and articulated their own cultural values. This was a fundamental change in government from the pre-European leadership in the Middle East, which was predominantly Islamic Caliphates. The Islamic Caliphates were imperial monarchies united by religion in a quasi-theocratic ideology as opposed to Arab Nationalism which called for European-style secular republics based on the Arab national identity.

European Colonialism had nothing to do with the development of Zionism. Zionism developed in reaction to the nationalism in southeastern Europe. Some Jews in Europe believed that the only way to solve the "Jewish Question" satisfactorily would be to create a Jewish State, forming the Jewish Nationalist movement or Zionism. Zionists tried to convince the Ottoman Empire to allow the Jews to establish such a state in Ottoman Palestine. When the Ottomans proved disinterested, the Zionists endeavored with the European Powers to help establish a Jewish State. The Germans, French, and British declared interest in doing this and when Palestine fell under British control, Zionism began to be realized in the British Mandate.

What is international Zionism?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Zionism is the belief that the Jews should have political self-sovereignty and is the patriotic sentiment behind the Establishment of the State of Israel. A Zionist is anyone who supports that belief and therefore the Existence of Israel. There are numerous Zionists, typically called "left-wing Zionists", who are more than willing to negotiate with Palestinians and give up a portion of Mandatory Palestine for an Arab State. There are also numerous Zionists, typically called "right-wing Zionists" or "Greater Israel Zionists", who believe that all of Israel is Jewish land and united Jerusalem is its capital and that the the Jewish Temple to God will be rebuilt someday, most likely on top of the Temple Mount.

Is Madonna a zionist?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Answer 1

yes she clearly is one.

she danced in madina the holy place for muslims.

her music conveys satanic messages.

in one of her songs she shape shifts into a dog

research and watch documentaries then you'll be able to points these things out.

Update: She portrayed herself as the queen at the halftime show on Superbowl 46 and did a Zionist ritual as she welcomed a new initiate in a white robe.

Answer 2

And now for something that is not comic relief...

Madonna has never expressed an exact opinion on the State of Israel, but considering that she has performed concerts there, it stands to reason that she supports the State of Israel's Right to Exist. So, she is likely a Zionist according to the definition of Zionism: a belief that the Jews should have political self-sovereignty and is the patriotic sentiment behind the Establishment of the State of Israel.

Unfortunately, many people use the term "Zionism" to refer to a non-existent cabal of Jews who "control the world". As such a cabal does not actually exist, Madonna cannot be a part of it.
