Nationalism vs. Primary Loyalties
Is there a meaningful differentiation to be made between “nationalism” and the concept of primary loyalties?
It seems that the value gained from the in-depth study of nationalism is negligible. We simply zoomed in way too much on a nationalist moment and confuse it for something larger.
(Perhaps the zoom-in is a result of the explosion of information in our social environment. Kind of like my thinking on the myth of the unipolar moment.)

Good luck to Shane with his new venture where he is President.
Review: Michael Clayton
Got a chance to see this flick after a busy week. Very well written, Wilkinson and Clooney are in good form, and the cinematography was excellent.
Slamming 911 Lines
A Hayward man was taken into custody on charges Wednesday that he clogged 911 lines with thousands of phony phone calls.
