Who are the “patriots”? Controversy about national affiliation in the socialist press in the US before 1917

Abstract

`!-- Début du contenu @xml:lang="en" --b‪This article presents the polemical and normative uses of the root-word patriot in the United States of America prior to 1917. Studying a corpus of socialist and non socialist press articles and essays, it analyses the processes of designation of opinion groups at a time when the involvement of the United States in the First World War loomed large. The designation of “patriots” became an object of discord and a debating point between the promoters of military “preparedness” and their socialist opponents. The article offers a panorama of the new debating lines that were drawn in the United States as the war unfolded in Europe. It documents the socialists’ relation to the national we and contributes a national case study to the international history of socialism and nationalism.‪`!-- Fin du contenu @xml:lang="en" --b
