"Despite all the evils perpetrated in its name, nationalism is not a mere moral mistake. It is crucial to most existing democracy. It provides solidarity vital to projects of social inclusion and distributive justice. It offers potential for integration across lines of ethnic and other differences. Nations are also bases for contesting neoliberal versions of globalization that threaten social institutions built through generations of struggle."
