After the terrorist attacks of 11 September, the United States have become more inward-looking and more sentimentally patriotic. Videos of unsavoury characters like Osama bin Laden have given rise to fears of the unknown and strengthened the call for a return to "American values". Although responsible policymakers have carefully avoided any hint of anti-Islamic sentiment, the return of values and culture as essential and core elements of national identity are part of a wave of conservative thinking that now also seems to have reached Europe.

Secondo lo storico Elie Kedourie, il nazionalismo e un'ideologia la cui origine risale alla Rivoluzione Francese. Tale ideologia e intesa a stabilire un ordinamento per mezzo del quale tutti i membri della societa possono vivere felici. La Rivoluzione del 1789, come sappiamo, porto ad un profondo mutamerito nel sistema politico europeo. Le monarchie, definibili come imprese familiari aventi il controllo di determinate estensioni di territorio, dovettero lasciare il passo ad un sistema nel quale la struttura politico-arnministrativa del territorio stesso dipendeva dalla volonta del popolo che vi abitava. II rapporto tra volonta e nazionalita venne rilevato peraltro da Ernest Renan gia nell'Ottocento. Egli sosteneva che l'esistenza di una nazione e subordinata alia volonta deli'individuo che, aspirando alia propria autodeterminazione, vuole identificarsi come membro di una nazione. Di conseguenza, il nazionalismo diventa un processo ideologico tramite il quale si cercano di stabilire i parametri di tale volonta per trasporla dal piano individuale a quello collettivo. La Rivoluzione Francese mise in discussione l' intero ordinamento politico e sociale che aveva caratterizzato I' Europa per molti secoli, ed aprlla strada all'azione dei movimenti nazionalisti in varie parti d'Europa tra cui l'Italia e la Germania. ; N/A

Several countries' use of national sports figures to garner prestige within the context of international relations is examined. An analysis of sports policy in the former USSR is performed, revealing that national sporting success in international competition was perceived as highlighting the positive characteristics of a Soviet lifestyle to the nation's citizens & demonstrating the superiority of Soviet society & politics on an international level. It is claimed that 20th-century GB's support for its athletes in international competition actually veiled the government's agenda for using sports figures to bolster support for social policy. In addition, an examination of sub-Saharan African governments' valorization of sports figures revealed that such individuals were used to acquire international prestige; however, it is asserted that such prestige has generally been short lived because of these nations' struggles with education & employment issues. It is suggested that states continue to search for new forums in which to demonstrate their power. J. Parker
