Talk:Internationalism (politics)

message: There has long been a cultural movement which is to apply principles of rights and morality etc without regard to national boundary. Examples are people who consider themselves 'citizens of the world' etc. That's not at all "cooperation between nations" which seems to be the definition of internationalism according to this article. So if I surrender the terminology to the authors of this article, what is the proper term for the movement and advocacy of encouraging people to see themselves as one of the people of all the people of the world, rather than one of the people of particular nation?

message: Was not the Free Trade movement on the 19th century "internationalist" e.g. Richard Cobden. I think the use of "internationalist" in this article is debatable.
I agree. I've added information about Cobden.--Johnbull 16:09, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

message: The article needs enhancing to make it clear whether internationalism doctrine is essentially non nation-state socialism, or whether the objectives of internationalism are sought by many means, depending on the adherants points of view: i.e. some believe that internationalist aims may be met purely by socialist means, whilst others perhaps believe that those aims may be met by more "right-wing" policies (ignoring the issue that some people may claim that right-wing style policies are by their nature nation state focussed, a point that is no doubt itself of some debate). --jrleighton 09:59, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Socialism 

message: George Washington may have been opposed to internationalism, but I don't think that this point should be stressed as much as it is in the article.  It seems heavily biased toward the American perspective.
I agree- especially considering tha this is about internationalism rather than anti-internationalism. --khello 01:24, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Peer review request

message: I've removed some sections which made some POV claims.
"...as well as to strictly economic globalization movements which deny the value of other nations' culture and differences."
Until this has a source, it should be removed, as it contradicts the section on British internationalism below.
"Contemporary free market globalization is not internationalist. It promotes purely economic integration, while ignoring the political and social aspects. In addition, it promotes a very different economic system than the one advocated by internationalists. The Left speaks more and more of a "globalization of solidarity". The modern anti-globalization movement is internationalist in nature, and often advances the notion of alter-globalization."
Again, blanket statements which are probably incorrect. I am almost certain that you can get capitalist internationalists.--Nydas 06:46, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Removed some sections

message: I think we all can safely say this article is crap.  There are too many contradicting articles, it has no order, it makes no sense, someone obseses about the British, why?  We also need to diversify it, make a controversies & criticisms section & make it a little less biased in all respects.
this is blackspy47, still standing his ground, but requesting a reviewing of the article.

thread_title: Quality of article

message: "What assists in this argument, however, is the fact that China subsidizes their industries 17%, keep their currency artificially low and tariff American goods.[2]"
America extensively subsidises it's industries as well, and countries with "free trade" agreements with the U.S. are not compensated for those susidies (I'm thinking of agricultural subsidies here especially). As such this China bashing (under the mask of weasel words) seems disingenuous.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.242.91.158 (talk) 04:51, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  China Tarifs -WTF?

message: The article starts with "Internationalism is not necessarily anti-nationalism, as in the Soviet Union and the People's Republic of China" but it doesn't discuss the topic, Proletarian internationalism being mentioned at the end. Strange.

thread_title:  Soviet Internationalism ?

message: I deleted the paragraph under Other Uses for the following reasons:
* The provided reference in no way supports the assertions made, which would be editoralizing at best
* A cursory Google search combining the terms China and Internationalism don't bring up any supporting articles within the first few pages either, so I'm going to go out on a limb here and say the person who added it was Just Making Shit Up. 111.240.176.3 (talk) 12:19, 9 November 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Chinese Internationalism" 

message: This article is lacking a 'Criticism' section (except for a bizarre subsection discussing Derrida and Shakespeare entitled 'Literature and criticism'. I can only assume the 'criticism' referred to here is literary criticism, not criticism of the ideology), a glaring immission for an ideology/ideologies as significant as this/these (cf. the article on 'Nationalism' which has extensive criticism of the concept). There's certainly abundant criticism of internationalism (as a theoretical concept, as distinct from criticism of the operations and practical consequences of Globalism, for instance) out there. Therefore, a section outlining some of the common should be added. St Judas the Lazarene (talk) 03:30, 18 January 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Criticism 

message: Internationalism was not born in Britain, and especially not in the kitchen of the classic 19th century liberalism, where nationalism and racism was not only popular, but formed the mainstream liberalism. 
Many racist politicians fully supported free trade, especially in the USA, and in the colonial Empires, where the colonalism based on racist conceptions.--Creator Edition (talk) 12:12, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: This is correct. Britain has born colonialism and its in direct conflict with internationalism. For example, the racial laws have been abolished in British African colonies only in 199x.85.197.11.179 (talk) 00:31, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
