The word was coined in the late 19th century as European powers indulged in the “Scramble for America” in the name of domestic glory, but was most closely linked with militarist government in the 20th century.

It is based on the presence of a historical ethnic culture that meets the romantic ideal. 5. Cultural Nationalism The country is described y shared culture, not solely civic or ethnic. Chinese nationalism is an instance of cultural nationalism, partially due to China’s many national minorities. Membership in the nation neither completely voluntary nor hereditary. 6. Third World Nationalism Nationalist feelings are the outcome of opposition to colonial rule to survive and maintain a domestic identity.(countries under develop) 7. Liberal Nationalism Is a kind of nationalism lately defended by political philosopher who think that a non-xenophobic form of nationalism compatible with liberal values of liberality, tolerance, equality and individual rights can exist (Tamir, 1993 Kymlicka 1995, Miller 1995). It is asserted that in order to live meaningful, independent life, people need a national identity and those liberal democracies and domestic identity to work correctly. 8.

Patriotism of Affection this is the patriotism of the heart. It is about one’s internal desire for his country’s well-being. The patriotism of affection can be seen in the patriotism of duty, but it does not necessarily result in it; one can truly love his country and yet be a coward, just as one can theoretically fulfill a patriotic duty and yet feel apathetic about the country’s welfare. 3. Patriotism of Manners this is customs Patriotism, written and unwritten. The patriotism of manners is to place one’s hand over the heart during the national anthem. It can be performed by anyone without actually needing affection or duty patriotism.

It is a logical consequence of the state itself, which derives legitimacy from being the expression of the common good of the political community. (arnis) National monuments, and veterans days and commemoration ceremonies are typical examples. Often official patriotism is highly regulated by protocol, with specific methods for handling flags, or specific pledges and displays of allegiance. 3.

These guiding principles dictate conduct and can assists individuals to know the distinction between right and wrong. It also assists organizations by establishing an unwavering guide to determine if they are on the correct track and fulfill their objectives. Hundreds of choices are made every day by every person and every organization. The choices we make reflect our values and beliefs and are always aimed at a particular purpose. That aim is our person or collective (organizational) needs to be satisfied. When we make choices using our values, we create a conscious decision to concentrate on what matters to us. They create inner cohesion within a group when values are shared. FILIPINO VALUES SYSTEM Here in the Philippines, values are really of importance and should be respected. As we grow older, our parents shape us different values. From the time we are born. Pagkalinga, pag-aaruga and pakialam were given by them. This values shapes our real Filipino culture, showing that we are conscious of others. The Filipino value system relates to the set of values or the value system that has historically been held by a majority of Filipinos in their life. This system of Philippine values involves the distinctive combination of coherent ideologies, moral codes, ethical procedures, cultural etiquette, and private values promoted by the Philippine society. However, as with any culture, the values held sacred by any person may vary on the grounds of religion, education, and other variables. PHILOSOPHICAL FOUNDATION OF FILIPINO VALUES For the most part, Filipino values are focused on preserving social harmony, mainly driven by a group’s willingness to be accepted. The Primary sanction against diverging from these values are “Hiya” ideas. Approximately translated as “a sense of shame”, and “Amor proper” or “self-esteem” MODELS OF THE FILIPINO VALUES 1. Exogenous Model or the Foreign Model a “legal and formal” model is defined as the international model. Filipinos from Western cultures, particularly from the Spaniards and the Americans, inherited the foreign model. 2. Indigenous Model or the traditional Model described as a “traditional and non-formal” model or guide, the indigenous model is deeply integrated in the Filipinos subconscious.  STRUCTURES AND ELEMENTS OF FILIPINO VALUES HIYA (ownership/ dignity) It implies totality, referring to society, or not doing stuff alone.
