Over the years, many experts predicted confidently that the power of nationalism would abate as "rationalism" and "internationalism" spread. Elshtain explains why this prediction was flawed and accounts for the emergence of today's "new nationalism," the political passion of our time. She asks, Knowing the terrible cost of nationalistic excess, is there a defensible version of national identity and loyalty? With the late Sir Isaiah Berlin, Elshtain argues "yes." In her provocative epilogue, Elshtain asks whether there is room for forgiveness in international politics, and concludes on the speculative and hopeful note that ways might be found to break repetitive cycles of vengeance.
Together with Elshtain's lectures, this volume offers responses by Fred Dallmayr and Martha Merritt and a foreword by Raimo Väyrynen, John M. Regan, Jr. Director of the Kroc Institute.
Jean Bethke Elshtain (1941–2013) was the Laura Spelman Rockefeller Professor of Social and Political Ethics at the University of Chicago Divinity School, a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and a former Guggenheim Fellow. Her books include Democracy on Trial (1995), Augustine and the Limits of Politics (Notre Dame Press 1995), and Real Politics: At the Center of Everyday Life (1997). Fred Dallmayr is Packey J. Dee Professor Emeritus in philosophy and political science at the University of Notre Dame. He is the author and editor of over fifty books, including Spiritual Guides: Pathfinders in the Desert (University of Notre Dame Press, 2017). Martha L. Merritt is Dean and the Carole M. Weinstein Chair of Interational Education at the University of Richmond. She worked at the University of Chicago and the University of Notre Dame before coming to Richmond. She established programs, internships and long-term partnerships abroad, as well as overseeing Chicago’s Center in Paris. Her goals for international education include integrating local and global learning on challenges such as sustainability, facilitating meaningful engagement with other cultures, and empowering international students as vital community members. Raimo Väyrynen is Professor of Political Science at the University of Notre Dame, and Director of the Helsinki Collegium for Advanced Studies, University of Helsinki, Finland.
