Nationalism, but what kind?

The chapter discusses different types of nationalism represented by the teachers, focusing on the four issues that divided them. Firstly, it examines the way in which the teachers understood the Polish nation, that is, whether they defined it in an inclusive or an exclusive way. Secondly, it explores the extent to which the teachers focused on the history of the Polish nation in contrast to general history. Thirdly, it considers how the teachers imagined obligations towards the nation. Fourthly, it investigates whether the teachers discuss the dark sides of national history or emphasise the glorious aspects of national history to arouse national pride among students.
