What do you think are the limitations of nationalism?

The limitations of nationalism can be cited as:

  • Most nationalist ideals are representative of the goals of a single cultural group. Thus, they fail to incorporate the broader vision of inclusiveness.

  • Since it is not possible for every cultural group to create its own nation-state therefore every nation-state state has more than one cultural group.

  • The different cultural groups often get involved in conflicts due to their separate nationalist aspirations and the principle of exclusivity based upon a desire for homogenous identity.

  • The role of nationalism in a globalised world is yet to be completely evaluated as nationalist tendencies acquire a different meaning in an inter-connected world.
