New Nationalism connection to Political Psychology Themes
The research that my group conducted on the rise of the New Nationalism has connections to the the themes that we explored specifically with themes regarding "The Crowd" and Maslow's hierarchy of needs. First, the New Nationalism has a strong connection to how Le Bon explored the theories of crowds. Nationalism is seen to be a collective idea that have the same goal in mind which is to have this prideful attitude towards ones country or a sense of superiority. Even though "The Crowd saw it with events happening in the 19th century we can see it now with MAGA and many European movements that are nationalistic. Next, Maslow's hierarchy of needs also connects well with research on the New Nationalism. We can see that people have a sense of belonging and safety since they believe in the superiority of their country.
