National Cultural Autonomy 

By Fredrick Danson.

Prologue to National Cultural Autonomy

My name is Fredrick Danson I was born of a British father and a Russian mother, my father was a Anglo Catholic and my Mother was a Russian Orthodox Christian and as for me I became a Byzantine Catholic at the age of twenty and three. My Nationality is American, Russian and Byzantine Catholic. My citizenship is American so I am not recognized as a Russian and I do not care. I'm a Post-Soviet and a Anti-Communist. My longest lasting relationship was with my boyfriend who was Russian and I miss him very much but in 1999 he died of the A.I.D.S virus and it has passed to me, so if I am to die I will be sure that my knowledge is passed to those who will use it for Generations to come and hopefully those who I inspire shall outdo me. Ever since I was a boy I have been deeply influenced by my mother's Anti-Communism and my father's Anti-Capitalism. I am a Urban Scholar but let me make it clear I owe much to the Academics. I do not believe in the three post-feudal ways of modern politics, these being number one Capitalism, number two Communism, and number three Fascism/Nazism/Corporate Nationalism. I do not expect for the reader to embrace everything I say, I'm confident I will have full disciples as well as critics as well as those who agree with me in part.

National Cultural Autonomy was truly a notion that was originally expressed by the Jewish Labor Bund. To explain National Cultural Autonomy it is necessary to understand what Nationality is.

Nationality is not Nationalism.

Nationality is not the legal relationship between an individual human and a state.

Nationality is the person's National-identity, not State-conformity or State-bound loyalty.

A Nation is NOT a state.

A Nation is a grouping that may or may not be located on a country. NATION is defined by religiosity, ethnicity, political affiliation, cultural awareness or any combination of these. Jewish nationality and Byzantine-Catholic nationality are the most consistent manifestations of Nationality. Nationals typically stand against the prisons of Nationalism and the forced-conformity of Corporatism. Ultimately it is Nationalism that destroys Nations. Corporatism is a threat to Nationality as well, but neither of these are justifiable according to Nationals. A National is not a Nationalist because a National does not consider his or her National-identity to be married to a Nation-state. Nationals typically advocate Nationality. A National should not be confused with a Nationalist because the constructs of Country, State and Nation-state are distinguishable:

 

#1 A Country is a Sovereign land.

#2 A State is defined by a Government's estate of a Country.

#3 A Nation-state(this system is known as Nationalism) is when the State is fused with the Nation, this has been the root of great many of disasters, and thus Orthodox Nationals have a tendency to be nomadic and at times become self-segregated.

Nationality is incompatible with the forces of Marxism, Free Enterprise, Reichism, Anti-Religion, Racism, Zionism, Pan-Arabism, Corporatism, Supremacy, and Fascism. Human Rights are self evident, the right to build and/or preserve a Nation is a Human Right, National preservation is a Human right. Nationality does not pose a threat to genuine Socialism nor does Nationality pose a threat to genuine Free Trade. Nationality is not against all forms of Socialism and Nationality is not against all forms of Patriotism, but it stands against Nationalism and Corporatism. Nationality is the commonality of peoplehood. Nationalism is only one form of Statism another version of Statism would be Imperialism. How can a National survive today at all when what is required is to brake free of the Nationalist-world and at the same time not be destroyed by the Corporatist-world that requires the death of Nationalism in order to ensure Total Corporatism? Can some form of Nationalism that allows independent Autonomy be made in order to ensure the total end of Corporatism? 

If Corporatism is destroyed what will it take to then be rid of Nationalism once it would then no longer be needed? 

This is my Thesis and in this Thesis I seek to explain how to maintain National Cultural Autonomy.
