National Existentialism

National Existentialism is a philosophical perspective that emphasizes individual freedom and personal responsibility within the context of national identity and cultural heritage. It explores how individuals find meaning and authenticity by engaging with their nation's history, values, and community, while recognizing that such bonds are chosen and not imposed. This approach balances personal existentialist ideas—such as creating meaning through choice—with a sense of belonging to a shared national story, highlighting the importance of both individual authenticity and collective tradition in shaping one’s sense of purpose.
