Patriotism is not enough - jul.2000

The theories offered range from the more cosmopolitan constituional patriotism of Habermas to more rooted republican versions. Despite their rhetorical effectiveness in certain political situation, none of these variants stands up well to critical analysis, and none succeeds in delivering the promised reconciliation of universal humanitarian principles with limited and paticularistic commitments
