Romantic Nationalism

Romantic Nationalism (organic nationalism, identity’s nationalism) is an extraordinary form of ethnic nationalism, where state derives it’s political legitimacy as a result of nation’s (or race’s) expression. It was the reflection of Romantism and was opposed to the rationalism of enlightenment. Romantic nationalism was stressing on historical ethnic culture, which was totally correlative with the idea of Romantism[1].
