Abstract
Current debates about patriotism and nationalism have so far failed adequately to take into account the historical meaning of republican patriotism.

It is an attachment to the political values of republican liberty and to the culture based upon them. As such, it is a theoretical alternative to both civic and ethnic nationalism, and it is not at all confined within the bygone experience of city‐states.
