Liberal nationalism

Holds that nations have a right to self-government and a shared identity, provided they respect individual rights and pluralism.

Associated with: Giuseppe Mazzini, Woodrow Wilson, civic nationalism in Canada and Scotland.

Liberal nationalism sits in the right-libertarian part of the Caucus economy and liberty compass: slightly free market and slightly libertarian. The clearest positions are leaning nationalist on nation, leaning institutional on institutions and leaning tech-optimist on technology. The profile is close to the middle on interventionism.
