<br/><br/> For a world in the throes of multiple revolutions involving rapid social, political, and technological change, nationalism is a com- <br/>mon force of organic power and compelling dynamism. It should be obvious throughout "the presently underdeveloped and in- <br/>termediately developed worlds" that nationalism shows little sign of yielding to the logic of early regional or global union, despite <br/>pressures for military security and economic viability. Ironically, the imperatives of national unity and self-conscious national <br/>loyalties in Asia and Africa find expression at a moment in history when in important respects the nation-state has, for all practical purposes, become obsolete. Yet for the present in the emerging new nations long pent-up aspirations for self-determination and economic growth are linked with the achievement of national identity. Social justice and a place in the sun are goals men stubbornly pursue within the framework of revolutionary nationalism.
