George Orwell: Notes on Nationalism (English Edition)
0 - Default Title
Description
In this essay, Orwell redefines nationalism not as love of country, but as a dangerous habit of mind:
the urge to merge one's identity with a cause, ideology, or power bloc and to place it beyond moral scrutiny.
With clarity and moral precision, Orwell dissects how nationalism distorts perception, corrodes intellectual honesty, and replaces facts with emotional allegiance.
He shows how even educated individuals become capable of extraordinary self-deception once they believe themselves to be serving a higher collective purpose.
This edition is the English-language hardcover version of Orwell's classic essay.
George Orwell. Notes on Nationalism. First published in: British magazine "Polemic", October 1945. The text of this edition follows "Complete Works of George Orwell", Secker and Warburg, London 1987.
