Patriotism and Nationalism in Music EducationDavid G. Hebert, Alexandra Kertz-Welzel Music has long served as an emblem of national identity in educational systems throughout the world. Patriotic songs are commonly considered healthy and essential ingredients of the school curriculum, nurturing the respect, loyalty and 'good citizenship' of students. But to what extent have music educators critically examined the potential benefits and costs of nationalism? Globalization in the contemporary world has revolutionized the nature of international relationships, such that patriotism may merit rethinking as an objective for music education. Nations covered include Germany, the USA, South Africa, Australia, Finland, Taiwan, Singapore and Canada. |
