Nationalism

Good article. 

One of the area where I would disagree with the authors is in my belief that some amount of what they would deem "economic protectionism" is needed.  To be free, a nation must produce its own food and energy supplies and have the industrial and technological base required to ensure its independence from other nations.  In fact, to the extent that certain nations lack these capabilities, one would expect their support of transnational and globalist policies to be stronger than that of nations which do have these capacities (i.e. for true independence).

A second observation would be that it is likely Americans' increased willingness to identify as "global citizens" is tied to the breakdown of both the nuclear and extended family.  If the nation itself represents an extension of familial bonds, and an increasing number of people come from non-nuclear and/or dysfunctional families it would follow that nationalist sentiment would wane as a result.
