Evidence

In an era when new nation states are frequently asserting their right to independence, or having their autonomy threatened by other nations, it is a matter of pressing concern to establish whether relatively benign “patriotic” sentiments (i.e., a positive yet critical regard for own country) can be fostered without them degenerating into the destructive chauvinism that is the hallmark of “nationalism” (i.e., an uncritical love of own country coupled with a derogation of other countries). — , Rudman, Laurie A - On the Nature of…, 470 (#corroborates, via linked claim)
