3.'Globalisation' vs nationalism

Intro:

For  a infant mother is his world ,for a child his family is,for a a adolescent the space attached enlarges to accommodate friends,family ,relatives and community.For a adult nationalist  it becomes a nation with the spirit of nationalism.In the same way when we take a insight in the dynamics of the growth of human civilization,it has been changing from a discrete fragmented small primitive tribal societies to the division in nation state system. Now each unit of this system aspire,struggle and necessitate the phenomenon of Globalization(G) because of broadened outlook horizons of humans,increased needs of human life,emerged commonalities of problems and solutions with civilizational advancement.

Polarized and reinforced spirit of nationalism can modify the pace and alter it but the flow that globalization has is continuous and unstoppable and seems perpetual at least in near future.

What is globalization(just a brief capture no try to define or explain in vain)

-broadening ,deepening and speeding-up of  world inter connectedness

-ever existing phenomenon

- global shift towards a utopia that is globality

- a flow,a process 

- a counter wave is also generated against G  which is named as anti-G

what is nationalism (small para)

Nationalism is a belief, creed or political ideology that involves an individual identifying with, or becoming attached to, one's nation.it involves feeling and national identity.a nation is collective whole of its citizen having commonality of cultural heritage and belongingness. This feeling of common identity ,common culture ,common interest binds them emotionally and they show concern for each other which is nothing but spirit of Nationalism.

G vs nationalism(exaggerated differences and gloss over similarities)

G expect a global citizen of future as its prime constituent while each nation have its own citizens soaked in spirit of Nationalism.The 18th century shared civil rights ,19th century shared political rights recently the 20th century shared 

social rights and now nations's citizens  are also sharing cultural rights of living one's identity rooted in a particular cultural tradition.the celebration and protection of cultural identity itself in direction of Individualism throughout globe under current of G.

G want and try to bring homogenization and nationalism waves against it and assert a unique and separate identity.

G deny or at least put the sovereignty ,territory at back foot but sovereignty and national interest are deeply entrenched in nationalism.

nationalism seek its own interest in perpetuating the division of world in nations.

G results in erosion of state capacity ,that is ,sovereignty while nationalism reinforce or asserts government authority to do what it want to do.

G promotes free world trade and nationalism supports international or transnational trade within national interest.

under G cultural intermingling may lead to culture loss of which G has less concern.Nationalism try to revive cultural values at verge of extinction.nationalism even use culture and protection as its instrument to sustain.

G and family/social life: G widen the inter generational divide.It breaks the joint family into functional joint family and further it into nuclear family.Individual ability to experience oneself as reality weakening while nationalism find its own way of energizing self aware and self reflexive to reflect one's identity.
G demands harmony ,cooperation and mutual dependence and integration.
nationalism sometimes goes against integration and indulge itself in rivalry,competition and even conflict in name of self assertiveness,self identity and  self interest.
Conclusion:
When nationalism include multiculturalism,diversity and tolerance then it is nothing but a small model of G.For our sake we can also assume nationalism a transition to G.
here we should talk about similarities between both and their harmonious feature and combined potentialities.

I do not want my house to be walled in on all sides and my windows to be stuffed. I want the cultures of all lands to be blown about my house as freely as possible. But I refuse to be blown off my feet by any- M K Gandhi and G
