Will Kymlicka on Nationalism - Dictionary of Arguments

Gaus I 252
Nationalism/Kymlicka/Kukathas: at the heart of Kymlicka's theory of multiculturalism is a form of nationalism - or liberal nationalism, to be precise. It is his contention that the liberal tradition has a history of recognizing group-differentiated rights. >Multiculturalism/Kymlicka
, >Minority rights/Kymlicka.
This is most evident, in his view, in the fact that most liberal theorists accept that the world is made up of separate states. These states are normally assumed to have the right to decide who may enter their jurisdictions to visit, reside, or acquire citizenship. Kymlicka's view is that 'the orthodox liberal view about the right of states to determine who has citizenship rests on the same principles which justify group-differentiated citizenship within states, and that accepting the former leads logically to the latter' (1995a(1): 124).
