Integral Nationalism posits that the state ought to be centered around a strong [[file:Monarch.png]] [[Monarchism|monarchy]] wielding executive power, and that [[file:Dem.png]] [[Democracy|democracy]], [[file:Parl.png]] [[Parliamentarianism|parliamentarism]] and electoralism at a country level are a hazard against the national interest.
Due to his adherence to Catholic integralism, integral nationalism is highly traditionalist, and believes that [[File: Catheo.png]] [[Catholic Theocracy|Catholicism]] should play a central role in structuring society.
Line 24:
The genesis of integral nationalism comes with the very late XIXth century, in which French thinkers such as Charles Maurras and Maurice Pujo aimed to reconcile the ideals of French [[File:Nation.png]] [[Nationalism]] (which had previously been heavily tied with [[File:Jack.png]] [[Jacobinism]] and [[File:Lib.png]] [[Liberalism]]) with [[File:React.png]] [[Reactionary]] and [[File:Catheo.png]] [[Catholic Theocracy|Catholic]] principles. The Action Française, Maurras' and Pujo's new party founded in 1899, quickly grew with the influx of French Royalists, Nationalists, Traditionalists, and [[File:Synd.png]] [[Syndicalism|Syndicalists]]. A newspaper - also bearing the name Action Française, was created in 1908. In 1911, a reflection group called the Cercle Proudhon was formed, named after the famed early socialist thinker. The objective of the group was to combine Georges Sorel's [[File:Synd.png]] [[Syndicalism|Syndicalist]] thinking with reactionary thought - the end result was a doctrine which later became [[File:Sorelia.png]] [[National Syndicalism]].
This newspaper, in the beginning, was violently [[file:Anti-Semitic.png]] anti-semitic and [[file:Anti-Protestant.png]] anti-protestant, though these characteristics eventually waned with time - as main party personalities and activists begun to see them as irrelevant. The basis for these were the AF's insistance upon Catholicism as the principal pillar of French identity - and the Action Française was always opposed to biological racism in all its forms, and found the theories of [[File:Nazi.png]] [[National Socialism]] and [[File:Racenat.png]] [[Racial Nationalism]] to be barbarous and uncivilized.
During WWII, AF members were heavily over-represented in the Early Resistance, as demonstrated by Simon Epstein's book on monarchists in the French Resistance. However, many members also chose to collaborate with Vichy, especially Charles Maurras. This betrayal on the part of the party leader leads to the AF's banning and extinction, though it still exists today, in greatly diminished form.
== Beliefs ==
The state, according to this doctrine, should wield strong [[file:Sec.png]] [[Authoritarianism|authority]] and decisiveness for decision-making. However, integral nationalism does not support a [[file:Hegel.png]] Hegelian or [[file:Totalitarian.png]] [[Totalitarianism|totalitarian]] state (this is the central doctrinal difference with [[File: Fash.png]] [[Fascism]]) and believes that there are tasks and duties that the central state should leave off to other traditional structures and authorities (family, Church, commune, the trade corpus, et caetera). In addition, the integral nationalist state would work to promote these [[file:Trad.png]] [[Traditionalism|traditional structures]]. Integral nationalism therefore believes in a good degree of decentralization, and is not opposed to [[file:Dem.png]] [[Democracy|democracy]] at a local level. Integral nationalism also believes that the magisterium of the Catholic Church and [[File: Catheo.png]] [[Catholic Theocracy]] should serve as pillars of social cohesion.
Integral nationalism also believes in [[File:Corptism.png]] [[Corporatism]] (though not [[File:Fash.png]] [[Fascism]]'s state corporatism). Maurras and the AF were critical of capitalism and its proletarianization of the working class, and preferred an economic model in which independent tradesmanship dominated (sort of like [[File:Distributist.png]] [[Distributism]]) and in which each corpus would allow for democracy within a trade/profession.
