Jurgen Habermas Nationalism Idea And Constitutional Patriotisim
Today's we will examine Jurgen Habermas ideas about nationalism.Firstly, we can understand Jurgen Habermas ideas. We should examine nationalism ideas. Because of Jurgen Habermas well understood and interpreted the concept of nationalism. Nationalism, a common language, history and culture ties with the name of the social background could create a body coming together of people consisting of people or life of a
community is defined as a nation and progress ideals of society and a vision believed that societies development.
Why Jurgen Habermas included natioanlism ideas and Why did Jurgen Habermas need a
constitutional patriotism.Natioanlism covered whole concept in the world. Every people came some nations and peoples care about this
concepts. Nationalism ideas have power on the state and government. So that, nationalism the political thinking of the 19th and 20th century has left its mark in political life by affecting the state. Many wars appeared in the world for this
concepts. They worried about nationalism as a philosopher Jürgen Habermas, they saw a problem and tried to find solutions. To examine the concept of Jurgen Habermas' nationalism is natural.
Because the structure of the nation-state and nationalism emerged first in Europe. Parallels the emergence of these two concepts. Industrial
Hence nation - state concept lies in the structure of the concept of nationalism. According to Habermas, the emergence of the nation-state is realized in three ways. Fistly, neighboring regions, to rob, sub-cultures, language and religion spread by the community "has been realized. Secondly, "the new nation-states in general, has been assimilated, suppressed or marginalized sub-population is composed costs.
Finally realized with the emergence of ethno-nationalist movements "new nation-states was conducted with almost always bloody purification rituals and new minorities has been constantly under the new edition''. (Habermas, Page:50). According to me, Jurgen Habermas In these models until there is no problem with the first one. but there are some problems with the above-mentioned second and third models.
In my opinion, the second and third models are far from always democracy.According to me, third states models among the most dangerous also this state models is racist. Migration to force and ethnic cleansing The most obvious example: the Serb nationalism. Therefore, Jurgen Habermas worries about nationalism structure.
It's understanding, The idea of nationalism is a tradition created. Public and belongs to the national idea. Increase solidarity in the community. According to Jurgen Habermas, created nationalism nationalism against is dangerous for societies. This situations begins divided in the societies. As a result for this situations be printed inner minority groups, genocide done, done and done racism ethnic cleansing.
Jurgen Habermas regressive aspects of
nationalism are the misfired attempts. Thease are ''to replace modern forms of social integration- communication , discourse , and legitimacy law - with affective ties of kinship and to find pre- political natural criterion of membership in the political communtiy, to remove the influence of discurse and communication from the political process''. ( James Gordon , Page:125).
Former Yugoslavia, Nazi's Germany and Today's states romped this problems. According to me , Jurgen Habermas need to this problem
solving.Therefore, Jurgen Habermas transformed nationalism shell about constitutional patriotism. Farmed as a post- nationalist vision, the project of ''constitutional patriotism'' serves rescue
democracy from the nation's state. (Jurgen Habermas 1992a;1992b;1998).

concept of Nationalism.
of cultural integration'' created through historiogrpahy and transmitted through the channels of modern mass communications. (Robert Schuman, Page:11). According to me, Jurgen Habermas has classified the concept of nationalism to teach the public. Jurgen Habermas' public purpose transfers purest form the concept of nationalism.
Because it is spread all through history enamel created a society. This event can sometimes cause problems in the community by increasing the concept natioanlism. Jurgen Habermas want to protect this situations in the society.
Jurgen Habermas argues in a favor of ''Political Culture'' serving as '' Common Denominator for a constitutional Patriotism which smiultaneously sharpens an a awareness of the multicultural society''.(Habermas, Page:6, Ferry 1992a;1992b). In my opinion, Jurgen Habermas concept of nationalism has put his finger on a very pivotal point. The biggest problem of having a
multicultural nation state structure that implements the concept of constitutional patriotism inability today.
Jurgen Habermas, society as a whole and the employed is to create a common satisfaction with the concept of constitutional patriotism. The goal is to prevent exclusions division in society. In general Habermas associates the genocidial anti- semitism of the modern area with development of modern forms of political community and in particular with the rise of ethnic nationalism. (Robert Fine, Page:409).
to genocide and hate speech concerns and tried to bring a different perspective to the concept of nationalism .Habermas attempt to confort the conditions of political community that allowed anti- semitic movements to trive provides a key to this thinking about transition from natioanlist to post nationalism. (Robert Fine, Page:410).
Comes from the tradition and history of ethnic nationalism and nationalist communities. This phenomenon is seen in virtually all of the radical nation. Jurgen Habermas, this event is a
dangerous and do not want to rise in society. An afficent mechanism for repudiating everything regarded as foreign for devaluing other nations, for excluding national, ethnic, relgious, minorities especially jews.
In Europe Natioanlism becama allied with antisemitism , with disastrous consequences. (Habermas 1998, Page:111). It's deeply seems that, The rise of nationalism and European
concepts of communities living in European states that have seen a very bad loss. for example, starts up the Nazi holocaust .European States begins the search exit point. Jurgen Habermas, the starting point of nationalism and tried to find solutions by creating the concept of constitutional patriotism.
According to Jurgen Habermas , the only
the general agreement with respect to the
procedure regulating democratic discourse.(Per Helldahl, Page:87). Jurgen Habermas has talked about the importance of the concept of democracy with this idea. The idea of the constitutional patriotism democratic environment has established a connection with union.
However mostly law through democratic society, problems can arise if Occasionally determine the laws and constitutions.Therefore, It should be very careful while maintaining the democratic consensus. Jurgen Habermas, society does not treat the majority or minority. However, in a democratic society there are always groupings and are generally valid in the state where the laws are determined by the majority. Nationalism is fed from this event concept.
Therefore, an exact equal democratic consensus should emerge as fair and objective. The fellow feeling, patriotism or identity which should
permeate a democratic society is properly to have as its point of reference the principles of this very procedure, as opposed to some specific substance. (Per Helldahl, Page:87). According to me, this concept should be analyzed in two stages. The first method is the right concept put forward in a democratic society.
For example: America is a multinational structure, but communities have formed a new state called America unite, put aside their identity. The
identity of the laws and regulations, and prevented the prominence of various nationalist elements. So people with different identities have succeeded each other without excluding Like being a single state.
identities are inevitably rooted in the nation in the foreground. For example: Turkey and Serbia. If the identity or patriotism in this country sharply prevent chaos may occur in similar communities that community. Therefore, There are two effects on society and the concept of nationalism.
The concept of a government of the people first of nationalism, society, history, culture and tradition that allows the partners in the do something. the second is refuting a society where fear is causing an increase in Jurgen Habermas and the problems of this concept. The concept of nationalism in the community to be checked with the concept of constitutional patriotism. The concept of democracy should be inserted at this point stabilizer and society as a whole should be distributed in a fair way.
It's deeply seems that, Jurgen Habermas have different perspectives the other philosophers. For example: Charles taylor Charles Taylor, with emphasis on the recognition of all the identity of thought and the concept of the editing in this context. Jurgen Habermas, not the count in this case. Because with Jurgen Habermas has chosen to balance the governmental laws and regulations. In this theory has provided the constitutional patriotism.
It's understanding, Jurgen Habermas included detailed societies life style. Habermas attaches a price tag to Charles Taylor’s “politics of
recognition” (or something very much like it) and adds an argument about the “enjoyment of social and cultural rights” to the classic liberal core of individual civic and political rights.( Apaduairi, Page:444).
Jurgen Habermas consists of the proposal that what he call
“constitutionalpatriotism” ought to take the place of nationalism. By
constitutional patriotism Habermas appears to mean a form of attachment to a constitutional order that is a
particular national interpretation of more general—and widespread—
constitutional principles such as popular sovereignty and human rights.

According to Jurgen Habermas,indicates
to the ideology which has historically been the dominant source of
community
in democracy during the modern era – namely, nationalism. (Per Helldahl, Page:135)
According to me,Jurgen Habermas has
tried to democratize the concept of nationalism patriotism with the constitutional doctrine. Jurgen
Habermas purpose of passing in front of Nationalism concept of democracy is to
keep control of society.Because the
concept of nationalism in history has emerged a lot of community events by checking the genocide.
Habermas argues that a ‘functional equivalent’ of nationalism is needed, which takes as its point of reference the universal, democratic values
inscribed in the constitution rather than some particular culture. (Per Helldahl, Page:135).
Jurgen Habermas's constitutional patriotism with nationalism and argued that democratic values are universal terms must be present in every society. We understand that the two concepts should be complementary.
No matter of self of each part of the population will disappear in the community. In this sense, it should be stressed that nest of different social groups in society. If, as Jürgen Habermas has argued, there is an inherent contradiction within the idea of the modern state between the
then for Kant this contradiction is ultimately resolved in favour of an immanent connection between republicanism, cosmopolitanism and the overcoming of natioanlist prejudice. ( Robert Fine,Page:615). These concepts are mentioned above, we understand the nationalism that Jurgen Habermas. They emphasize that the two
philosophers in the community should stop the obsession with national identity.
For me, unity and diversity involves communities. The main point of difference is tolerated within a society. Jurgen Habermas has deepened the
cosmopolitan perspective on this phenomenon by applying the concept of nationalism. An idea that has often been used in this context is the idea of Constitutional Patriotism. The idea that the focus of loyalty should not be the cultural nation but self of a political principles.(John S Dryzek, Bonnie Honig, Anne Phillips, Page:537).
It's deeply seems that, Jurgen Habermas anaysal mentioned the concept of patriotism and stressed that society should not enter into people's lives in the quest for identity. The concept of
constitutional patriotism by Jurgen Habermas must be located in the state's administrative
capacity. Such loyalty, it is claimed , is a sufficent basis for democratic institutions and policies of social justice ; no thicker social cement is needed. (John S Dryzek, Bonnie Honig, Anne Phillips, Page:537).
within the properties attributed to ethnic
nationalism. Sometimes civil, political factors that nationalism, and sometimes ethnic / cultural nationalism that although the dominant elements in each specific situation, with each type blends ethnic civil type.( Emre Gökalp, Page:285)
In this context, Habermas, as a historical idea of the nation in Europe in the very ethnocentric and xenophobic version of promoting constitutional citizenship is used as a political tool to draw attention . (Habermas, Page:79-96).
Finally, according to me have reconstructed using the concept of nationalism understanding Jurgen Habermas constitutional patriotism. Jurgen Habermas has stopped on many time
constitutional patriotism. Subsequently, Jurgen Habermas civil - nation building by placing the government's theory of the so seen as the core. Has deepened the understanding of constitutional patriotism. Jurgen Habermas' has influenced the present political structure of the state with the concept of constitutional patriotism.
According to me , Jurgen Habermas feared the revival of Nazi fascist spirit. Vision has seen today in owned. Writing the text to the Turks in Germany dies, glass shops, milling marks Nazi racist demonstrations against the Islamic mosque arson in Switzerland and shows that the concept of European nationalism still primitive stage. Jurgen Habermas has been right on Constitutional Patriotism To worry about the concept of
