This chapter illustrates nationalism's greatest moments in daily matters. It argues that nationalism molds our culinary preferences; shapes our architecture and decor; orchestrates the soundtrack of our lives; and fashions what we wear, how we talk, and what we dream about. The chapter uses gardening as an interesting example of the way nationalism shapes our everyday life. It emphasizes the connectedness of nationalism to nature by narrating nation-states' national flowers and plants. The chapter also introduces architecture as another means of shaping the public sphere in the nation's image. Ultimately, the chapter demonstrates how nationalism entered modernity through a democratic and economic corridor. It allows us to see that it answers not only the needs of the state but also of modern individuals wishing to become authors of their lives. Nationalism enriches their personal and public experience, endowing their deeds with special importance, making them part of a continuous chain of creation.

This chapter aims to remind ourselves that one-sided political theories are bound to lead to moral and political calamities and to encourage a search for a set of compromises that fit the needs of our age. It notes that we have a lot to learn from the failures and successes of the last century; the most important lesson of all is to be more critical of our own beliefs and more open to those of others. The chapter then reviews two of the leading ideologies of the last century, liberal democracy and nationalism. From each of them, worthwhile human values and social strategies are exerted. The chapter identifies with nationalism's most extreme expressions: brutal neoliberalism, on the one hand, Nazism, and fascism on the other hand. Ultimately, the chapter draws out some of the valuable and constructive aspects of nationalism, arguing that they reflect a scope of human needs and aspirations that should be considered. It presents the case for nationalism, trying to highlight its importance in any future social construct.
