Beliefs
Some basic values of modern interpretations of Social Nationalism can be summarized as follows:
- We shouldn’t strive for laissez faire capitalism, because that will lead to a degenerate culture of materialism and consumerism, neither should we strive for communism as it is inefficient and would weaken the nation.
- Economics should be somewhat flexible so that the system that best suits the people is what gets implemented.
- Most immigration to a country should be from culturally similar nations and peoples, typically limited to only the most skilled. Actual refugees should instead seek refuge in the nearest stable country.
- Nationalism and Traditionalism should be taught in school, aligning with the virtues that would be important to teach to youth, while other values like discipline, high work ethic, honesty and unity would be encouraged.
