#83 Balancing Local & Universal: What Catholic Nationalism Teaches Us - with Colt Anderson

"It is a Catholic axiom that in order to lead someone away from error, you must recognize the truth that gives power to the error."

Thus writes Professor Colt Anderson in ⁠Faith, Nationalism, and the Future of Liberal Democracy⁠ (University of Notre Dame Press, 2021).

In this episode, we ask him how we can take that insight and use it to understand nationalism, especially Catholic nationalism. Anderson is clear that he thinks it is an error. But it also teaches us important things about the priority of the local. Thanks to Jamie Maule for sound engineering!

Thanks for listening!
