The text delves into the ethical implications of patriotism, dissecting its components and motivations while addressing the conflicting moral judgments surrounding this sentiment. Reidenbach aims to provide a thoughtful examination of patriotism, analyzing both its positive and negative attributes through an ethical lens. The opening of the dissertation establishes the significance of patriotism in contemporary society, highlighting the heated debates over its moral value. Reidenbach outlines the complexities of patriotism by identifying key impulses that drive it, such as attachment to one’s own group and antipathy to others, suggesting that patriotism is not just a simple love for one’s country but a broader sentiment influenced by social and psychological factors. He proposes an analytical approach to understanding patriotism, emphasizing the need for an objective investigation into its essence and its varying manifestations, especially in the context of war and national identity. This sets the stage for a rigorous exploration of how patriotism can shape individual and collective behaviors toward nations, particularly in times of conflict.
